Bullshit, Of course we do! I know that when that chemical enters my mouth I
experience the phenomenal experience of tasting something salty. And unlike
ESP and cold fusion crap this experiment is repeatable. But even your
Bullshit is not consistent, according to you that subjective salty taste
comes from a molecule of sodium chloride not from my mind. According to you
the molecule is shouting TASTE SALTY, TASTE SALTY.

A more idiotic idea is hard to imagine.

No shit Sherlock. I hate it when somebody makes a trivial observation,
dresses it up in a few four syllable words to make it sound respectable, and
then claims to have made a major new scientific discovery.

Wrong yet again.
