Well, it just took that question to realize it should be possible to find it 
online, and here it is:

But that was actually a reply to another thread initiated by Andrew:

Nah, he was into quantum physics when he joined, so if we affected each other, 
it was more the other way around.

No, it's not mind from matter. It's just the same as biological brains. You 
don't need to break the MoQ, just define the biological a teeny weeny bit
