Dr. Stephey: If our two eyes are not working together well as a fast synchronized team, our internal mapquest continues to be off. It's consistently inconsistent with our ability to judge time and space. Those that don't feel well-grounded, those that have some measure of anxiety, oftentimes it starts in the visual system.

There's one theory that says that when humans started eating the seafood diet, the size of our brain exploded in size. Arguably that's the theory of human development. There's two theories that I've heard about why we have the brains that we do today. One is the amount of mega three fatty acids that we used to eat and the other was man's ability to use tools. Because using tools requires a concept called motor planning and motor sequencing, which ties to that millisecond timing clock that we were talkin
