'When participants navigated Soho streets without assistance, brain scans revealed spikes in neural activity in both regions as people ventured onto new streets. The same regions were silent when participants were guided by GPS instructions.'

Still don't have GPS. Dead reckoning is da bomb, man. At age 17, dad took me on a trip to Los Alamos. I got to have use of his IH Scout and did an experiment. Lesse, could I find my old house in Los Alamos? Yup. So far so good, let's now check out Santa Fe, check. Go to my aunt's cabin in Tres Ritos, check. On the way back, scope out Harding mine, near Dixon. It only takes remembering highway numbers and what assorted landmarks look like.[Like so what if the original maps were made by a 5 year old?]
You guys don't live where traffic is hideous. I use my GPS not so I don't get lost usually, but because GPS can help me avoid some horrendous traffic tie-ups. It seems like when I don't use it, I end up in gridlock.
