Appendix - Information Has No Meaning!

This information has no meaning seeing as the appendix is connected to nothing of importance, it's not connected to your gull bladder, stomach, or intestines. I may only be 12 but I am very smart and know that nobody in the world can know exactly what it does, there have been conferences etc. But this can only be a guestimate. They shouldn't project into anyones mind that this is the complete truth unless they see it in action "Researchers in the United States say the appendix produces and protects good germs for the gut by "rebooting" the digestive system.", as if to say they know exactly!

How can nobody in the world know what it does? Do you know what everybody in the world knows? And why would it be a guestimate if they didnt guess or estimate anything? Its the Duke University, im pretty sure they know what they are doing. Its not like someone who goes to college says "hey, maybe this thing does this" and goes out and publishes it, there IS research and expirementation involved in studies you know. And you dont need to watch something to know what it does, we know our brain thinks but we cant just open someones head and watch them think. Oh and BTW it is connected to the intestines, the cecum is a part of the large intestine.
