Quote:Mind doesn't seem to be anything at all, except the capacity to subjectively experience.Why do you think that? My mind is doing alot more, most of which I'm not actually experiencing. Qualia never being more than just the tip of that iceberg. I suspect that yours is too..what with being a human, like me.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
