Whereas A is apple, b is red, and c is "a red apple". That's what I think ideas are (though I'm sure the idea of red apple is more complicated than this, some ideas..presumably, are not). Replace the gate above with a neuron and you have comp mind. Imo a redundant phrase, neurons -are- gates. An idea is, very literally, the state of the gate..in comp mind. Which inputs and outputs are true or false, on or off.
To give credit to the probable complexity of the red apple idea...perhaps something like this?

or maybe that;s still too simple....how about this?

Does this help?
