$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('PenultimateManStanding', 'I')n fact, the intelligence in a human brain only arises from the collective work of neural networks - a situation very analogous to the eusocial intelligence of an army art colony that knows how to build rafts to cross water, etc.

I think a solution may have been found or at the very least the system is aware. There is one big player that has been on this game since 1996 . I will only provide a link and people can check background of participants.

Now do your homework PMS ...
And look at 1996 as well ... I can understand many things with this hindsight that made no sense when a certain announcement was made in 1996.

That's interesting stuff and I will read it. A convergence of biotech and energy. You don't know how much I hope this all pans out. Thanks, ES. I'll discuss it with Christoph. Right now, though, I'm going to watch the first Coen Bros. movie Blood Simple. Somebody said here in this forum that it was a terrific movie.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('EnergySpin', 'W')hy do you guys think that fish have a symbolic program (like specop does).
There is nothing of that sort in their "brain". Just cells and electrical currents that jump from one cell to the other.
