our brains are hardwired to make sense of what we see, hear, smell, touch and taste, and fill in missing pieces with whatever our expectations suggest should be there. This helps us understand sentences even when the letters are out of place. But while brains are amazing at processing the world around us, how much should you actually trust your own brain?

Like the other inhabitants of the remote Kenyan villages of a bamboo Oh, and condemn ***, she is benefiting from the unique filtering system that was recently installed in her village on the Gona Reservoir. Instead of fetching the yellowish brown liquid directly from the reservoir and suffering from stomach ache and diarrhea, or were still being infected with cholera or typhus.
