Quote:What is the observable difference between neural activity that produces pain versus neural activity that produces the memory of your grandmother?
I'm trying to get a better sense of your argument here. I take it you're talking about consciousness itself and not the things that are most likely involved with consciousness? So, for example answering the above, isn't the memory of your grandmother physical in the sense that the memory has been stored in the brain much like a harddrive's memory is made up of electrons (I think it's electrons.. I'm not very well read up on the finer details of technology, but you get what I mean). Intelligent people such as Einstein had a brain considerably larger and thus heavier than most people and I think that's a direct correlation to the information stored in it. So is your point beyond that and you're asking how the brain effectively makes use of these neurons and physical data to experience consciousness?
