1) Your short-term memory has a max capacity of seven.
2) Chartreuse is the most visible color.
3) Your subconscious is smarter than you are.
4) You have two nervous systems.
5) Your brain is awful at probability.
6) Your memory isn't great either.
7) You can perceive depth with one eye.
8 ) Long-term memory shuts down during sleep.
9) You have an instant playback feature.

I've read a lot about how the brain works. Usually these little recommended articles on Stumble are regurgitated wife's tales. This site is condensed yet factual.

Nine Brain Quirks You Didn't Realize You Had
baggen rated 10 months ago
From the page: "6) Your memory isn't great either. Studies have shown that people are highly likely to misremember past events. Even worse, it is incredibly easy to suggest a memory that never happened. This is why so-called "repressed" memories should be given a lot of thought. It is far easier to suggest a memory of an event never happened, then it is to recover one that actually did." This happens to me all the time - I thought I was a creepy liar....

Hrm, I call shenanigans. Looks fairly true, but at LEAST oversimplified, if not patently false. 1), 5), and 7).
