What are your thoughts on split brains which develop two
independently conscious minds?
I can take this idea seriously. Some experiences are convincing, but I
need to see more of them.
We're they always two minds, or do they become such when they can't
communicate?
That is a difficult question. It might be a question of choice,
perhaps, depending on what you are willing to identify yourself to.
It is more than communication, it is integration/association, with
sharing of large data. The corpus callosum is a *big* wire.
I do think the left brain might specialize on the []p, and the right
brain on []p & p, if not p.
