Make of that what you will :-)

Dear Steven,
I think Crick of DNA fame was also seeking consciousness in the
microtubials. What troubles me most about the search for the neural basis
of consciousness is our lack of a coherent and satisfying working definition
of consciousness. I doubt we will find the neurological basis of something
we can't identify in the first place. The effort begs the question.
Moreover neurons may be a necessary without being a sufficient condition for
consciousness.
Just one layman's opinion.
Cheers,
Jim Piat
