A tangent here but…

Mr moto - can I assume that you're a dualist; i.e. you don't believe that mind and brain are one and the same thing. Or perhaps you didn’t see my little post on the previous page. I just pointed out that action potentials propagate along the fastest neurons in the human body at only about 120 metres per second. That's only 432km/h. So if thoughts are neuronal activity then they are rather slow and many contributors to this forum routinely travel faster than the speed of thought.
