Hmmm....  Using that logic, I may not be generating more creativity or ideas 
than average people.  Maybe my brain is just smaller than everybody else's 
and appears to be full of ideas at a lower capacity.  This is just another 
reason why we need Jupiter brains!

Excellent!  I do find that I consume much less alcohol than my boring 
contemporaries.  I seem to find life itself exciting enough without having 
to dull down my perceptions.

Sadly, alcohol doesn't help your favorite organ either.  As with the brain, 
alcohol only fools us into a false sense of accomplishment.
