    Imagine a fundamental building block of life as a gear. Now imagine your brain as a clockwork clock. Now take the diseased prion gear and throw it into your clockwork mind.

    Suddenly, that mismatched gear smashes into the other gears. This strips the gears and makes them like the foreign gear and now your mind no longer keeps track of time and many other things.
