I agree with the information you carefully pointed out in your #7 post, Maciamo san--in fact, a recent article in the magazine Science atested to how that can make a difference in a persons having a tendency to be an habitual lier. That grey and white does work out to present a difference as the brain grows, yet at birth how can that translate into intelligence?

I am not 100% sure, but I think that the proportion of grey vs white matter is set genetically and does not change after birth (or at least once the brain has been completely formed a few months later).
