One of the truly amazing things about the human brain is that its pattern
recognition capabilities seem limitless (in extreme cases).  We don't even
have a satisfactory way to describe pattern recognition as it occurs in
our brains.  (Well, maybe we have something acceptable at a minimum level.
I'm always impressed by how well dollar-bill changers seem to work.)  As
a friend of mine put it, "the brain immediately rejects an infinite number
of wrong answers," when working on a problem.
