(Gunshot.) Shhhh, just lie still, son, don’t try to talk. I know what you’re wondering. You come into town with the fastest draw in the West and I let you draw first and still you’re still the one lying here a bullet in ya. Well, if only you’d studied some neuroscience you’d know that being the fastest ain’t necessarily gonna help you, son. Why, a study just come out in the Proceedings 1 of the Royal Society. That’s a British journal, don’t worry about it. Showed that I can go 10 percent faster reactin’ to you drawing your gun than if I just tried to draw my own gun first. Has to do with the way the nervous system’s set up. And that 10 percent, why it more than made up for your puny 2 advantage. They say the great physicist 3 Neils Bohr wondered why the ones who drew second always seemed to win in Western movies. Well, now we know. Now give me back my issue of Scientific American what you stole, you magazine rustler 4.
