Hey Chris, when reading Penrose you may be interested to know that he is
philosophically a Platonic Dualist. He thinks there are two completely separate
realms, Mind and Matter, which somehow interact at the level of Microtubules in
the brain. He is closer to Descartes and his Pineal Gland than he is to any
form of Non-Dualism.
