Now I see why I got it wrong first time. That link has 'corpus collosum'. Now I can't remember where I got 'colossum' from. But here is a more authoritative looking link:
indiana.edu

How about this = quite a few people are born without one! <ACC -- AGENESIS OF THE CORPUS CALLOSUM-- refers to the congential absence of the brain's corpus callosum -- the massive formation of nerve fibers bridging the two cerebral hemispheres. (When partial or incomplete, the term dysgenesis is sometimes used.) Once thought to be a rare condition, ACC has been turning up with increasing frequency ever since the widespread clinical use of MRI to examine the living brain.

Human embryology textbooks* tell us that fibers of the future corpus callosum start growing off the embryonic nerve cells (neuroblasts) when the fetus is about about 3 1/2 months old. At five months, the fetus typically has a corpus callosum with the general shape and the anatomical features typically seen in the adult. In some ACC brains, there's an extra tract, the Probst bundle, believed by some investigators to be made up of fibers that ordinarily would have formed the corpus callosum, fibers that grew in the wrong direction during development.

In and of itself, the corpus callosum is not necessary for life or health -- or even for a productive intellectual life, as split-brain operations revealed many years ago. But conditions that precipitate ACC can also lead to other serious medical problems. The latter tend to dominate the scientific literature. Thus a compilation of works on ACC tells us much about the discouraging side of the subject but provides comparatively little encouraging news. Keep that in mind If you're a parent or friend looking for information on ACC,as you consult the papers in the Abstract Sets listed below.

Meanwhile, Judge Jackson and Joel Klein [who perhaps have got this ACC problem] are set to do the same to MSFT.

Let's hope the Supreme Court sees sense.

Investors have been much more damaged by the manipulative acts of Alan Green$pan, Judge Jackson and Ramsey Su than the GGMDM.

Ramsey boasts that his manipulative current Su Vacation Effect took out 20% of Q! value while my GGMDM hasn't moved the stock 1/16th! It's tough competing with him. He got his mug on the cover of Money Magazine and in the San Diego Union Tribune and all I got was vilified in WSJ.com!
