Well, how about someone who hasn't found anyone willing to discuss it, but
who *thinks* about it?  :)  Do they count as being conscious, or do you
demand the outward demonstration?  And are people who write books on the
subject *more* conscious?  Can we assign degrees of consciousness?  And
can you tell when I'm posting without 100% consciousness unless I post a
retraction or clarification or apology and explanation that I wasn't
entirely conscious when I posted?
