Consciousness

RE: Consciousness
Isn't it difficult, though, to tell the difference between a pol pot and an einstein without reference to their actions as products? We have every reason to believe that both mens brains were more alike than not. Some brains pol pot and some brains einstein - both are within the range of human brain function. That one example system or specific outcome expresses or more fully expresses one part of the possible range of that system or the set of potential outcomes than another is no more a demonstration of their fundamental difference than one vehicle being better than another in a turn or a straitaway or under load.

In this, and as any long term otr driver could intuitively know; all drives are, indeed, the same.... and it's all car stuff.
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. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. 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!
