H. M. Hubey (hubey@pegasus.montclair.edu) sez:

`Say what? ARe you one of the quantum brain enthusiasts too?
`The mind is what the brain does. What ever the brain does,
`electro-chemically is sufficient to produce mind.

Yipes. A reductionist along with everything else. I suppose I
shouldn't be surprised. Let's just say there are more things
in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy,
(the H. wouldn't be for Horatio, would it?) The world reveals
great subtlety to those who look with sufficient concentration.
The musings of reductionist spokesmen Dennett, Minsky and
the like not withstanding, the matter is by no means resolved.
But this is not the forum to discuss it. See how far you get
with that remark in sci.philosophy.meta, sci.psychology.cognitive,
or alt.consciousness.
