More than a little bit faster than the message can get to the brain and back, in fact. "The conduction speed of signals in the brain is about 100 m/sec, and in the central nervous system falls to about 70 m/sec. Just getting the signal from the brain to the feet could take 0.026 seconds (assuming you are 1.8 m tall)." http://condellpark.com/kd/reactiontime.htm > > Paul via phone > >> On Apr 27, 2014, at 8:42 PM, "Ken Waller" <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> .228 of a second >> >> Kenneth Waller >> http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/kennethwaller >> >> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Cottrell" <[email protected]> >> Subject: OT - How quick are you? >> >> >>> Had three goes, average of about .25 of a second, I'm a bobbing >>> bobcat..... >>> >>> <http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/sleep/sheep/reaction_version5.swf> -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
