Marsha, Marsha, Marsha:








Hmmm. The warmth and sincerity of your apology is overwhelming. Excuse me while 
a grab a hanky. 

Look, it hardly matters what you were excited about or even if you were excited 
at all. Either way, "excited" was your word, I wasn't making anything up, and 
"excited" hardly constitutes an accusation that you should want to defend 
anyway.

Regardless of whether or not you found it exciting, posting the quote 
demonstrates some level of interest in it. So I offered an explanation of the 
hypothetical scientist described in the quote as she relates to the hard 
problem of consciousness. 

And what was your response? You focused on the least relevant part and then 
used that to make a conspicuously false accusation. Was anything of substance 
added beyond this irrelevance and falsity? Nope. Zip, zero, nada. 

Some people would have responded by saying thanks and/or by saying something 
about the hard problem of consciousness or the hypothetical black&white lady 
scientist. But not Marsha. No way. That would be way too reasonable and fair. 
Marsha don't roll that way, huh?
