If most people are not using their brain, it may well start shrinking. It sounds quite logical to me.
I read the article you posted which was very interesting.

I don't really buy into the idea that Cro-Magnon man had a more intellectually challenging existence that modern humans.

Look at computers this very forum is quite an abstract concept, modern humans are constantly dealing with all sorts of complex transactions and technology that mentally are far more challenging than anything early humans would have had to deal with in the natural world. I think the concept of human domestication and its effects is very interesting and worthy of its own thread...
