[extropy-chat] "Dead Time" of the Brain

[A B]

Hello,
   
  Can someone here explain what seems to me to be almost inexplicable? That conscious experience exists even in light of the fact that at least 10^29 Planck Intervals will elapse between any two neural firings? (And in practice, probably a good deal more). It seems almost as if cognition "reaches back into time" in order to trace the whole pathway of activation - which constitutes what we call the "present moment". I know this post may sound religious or mystical but that is not my intent.
   
  Best Wishes,
   
  Jeffrey Herrlich
