That's not the case. In fact, the ML realignment is a point rotation at the dorsal end (homunculus pivots on its neck), and the ventromedial end swings up to become dorsolateral - imagine the drunk's head getting stuck to the lamppost (perhaps he licked it when it was cold), and his feet swing up, so that he is levitating or singing in the rain.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08475160555841796127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5424255638293718915.post-36162890313944820742008-01-09T14:16:00.000-06:002008-01-09T14:16:00.000-06:00Glad to hear that, neuron.
