For the more open minded people ... quantum mechanics as a mechanism
(probabilistic game engine) that allows consciousness to evolve (lower
inherent entropy/becoming more profitable from an evolutionary
standpoint) within this physical virtual reality. Consciousness being
fundamental. Brains and humans being not fundamental. That of course
implies that your Alcor subscription might be pointless. ;-)

The goal is to make sense of various existing theories of
consciousness, and try to integrate them into some sort of holistic
practical understanding -- while acknowledging that there's still
plenty left to be discovered!!...
