Which results? Can you elaborate on this? From memory, I think he does not distinguish the 1p from the 3p in his account, so he has no mean to distinguish the qualia from the quanta. But his paper was indeed very interesting, but with no clear distinction between physics and geography, nor quanta and qualia, a bit like ignoring (like so many) the mind-body problem.
