Uh. Wouldn't those connections need to be made of atoms?

Good point. Though I'm still sure that he's right in that there are many, many connections in the human brain.
There are more potential connections in between neurons in the human brain than there are atoms in the universe.

Or at least that is the way I heard it.

There are more potential connections between my cat and your dog than there are atoms in the universe. It's meaningless; just exponentiate something big enough and you get over the atom count :-)
