We obviously don't need to use 100% of the brain at every moment of the day, but studies have shown that in a 24-hour period we normaly use 100% and we also use virtually all parts of the brain :) @David Morgan: The truth is actually that when we are just relaxing the activity is probably about 10-15% but when we are very active the percentage get’s higher.

But then when fully brain active is was just over 30%. So at any one time over 70% is not being used. Interesting on repeat TV last night – we use more than 15% of brain when innactive.
