Welcome aboard!
The consciousness thing is definitely of interest to me. This forum sparked the interest by responses I got to a thread I started when I was a newbie. It was the first time I was made aware of the fact that we have absolutely no mechanism to explain how consciousness emergences from the complex pattern of electro-chemical processes in the brain. I suspect we will need a major discovery of new physics before we can do anymore than speculate. Known physics seems completely unsuitable for accounting for the phenomena.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
