I don't necessarily mean a thing apart from the brain. it could be a part of the brain, but that's not necessarily the case. it could also be a part of the brain that can separate from it. and I said thing, not object.
It is every bit as much a process. Cognition is a process. Memory is a process. Emotions are events. Why do you call it a thing if digestion is not a thing?
