Brains of older people are slow because they know so much.

People do not decline mentally with age, it just takes them longer to
recall facts because they have more information in their brains,
scientists believe. Much like a computer struggles as the hard drive
gets full, so, too, do humans take longer to access information when
their brains are full.

Researchers say this slowing down process is not the same as cognitive
decline.

The human brain works slower in old age, said Dr. Michael Ramscar, but
only because we have stored more information over time The brains of
older people do not get weak. On the contrary, they simply know more.

Also, older people often go to another room to get something and when
they get there, they stand there wondering what they came for. It is
NOT a memory problem, it is nature's way of making older people do
more exercise.

SO THERE!!
