We may be able to see how the elctrical impulses go from here to there, but you will still wonder where your thought is, wont it?
Erm...you just contradicted yourself. Sure, we could still wonder where our thoughts are, but we'd know the answer as you just stated, if we knew about every atom in the brain, and all the electrical impulses, we'd know exactly how consciousness worked.
