And yet somehow you Gordon Swobe "knows" that ordinary matter in the form
of your fellow human beings have a mind, at least when they are not
sleeping or under anesthesia or dead.  AND somehow you Gordon Swobe "knows"
that ordinary matter in the form of a computer can never have a mind no
matter how brilliantly it behaves. That must be a rather difficult trick to
pull off considering that you Gordon Swobe don't know how ordinary matter
can become mindful.
