256 Exabytes

[mrsmumbles]

The estimated storage capacity of the human brain is 256 exabytes.

Just think that's kind of interesting. I'm trying to decide if it seems like a lot, or too little. A single memory probably uses as much data storage as a 2 hour HD movie.

Interesting. Is there an article you can link to where you found this info? Is like to save it to pocket for future reference. :thumbup:

Thank you! As a side note, cats have a huge number of neurons or something too. I bet they could take over the universe if they wanted to.

Yes, the males come and go. We have a couple acres and they are barn cats to keep away the mice and other critters. The number fluctuates depending on which ones are around on any given day. They area is nothing but farmland so they also visit the other farms.

We have two indoor cats that wander in and out, but stay in at night.

Lol, my daughter started it with a stray. and here we are. Getting them spayed and neutered slowly. it's an expensive undertaking.

Yes it is. I miss my cat so much. She passed on in 1999. I can't have one where I'm at now. Hoping to move.

I've always had cats. We have a dog too. I hope you can get a kitty soon, they're great company and entertaining too.
