[Paleopsych] Re: From Eshel--A Glitch in Genetic-centrism

Here's something that may fit somewhere:

So far the Human Genome Project has identified
about 1.5 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms
that account for our individual differences.

If we think about how much we can do with
computer programming languages with a few
hundred reserved works, what possibilities
arise from 1.5 million "words?"

And what is the Master Control Program for
all of this?

Are there any notes or references available on-line relating the 
decision-making of quantum particles to the decision-making of bees (or 
other mind-body entities)? My own interest is in the commonality that links 
the decision-making across different organisms/entities, and I wrap it up 
in the notion of bodies-as-tools. If you were a quantum particle, your 
particle-body predisposes you to making and habituating different types of 
choices to what you would otherwise make/habituate if had the mind-body of 
a bee, or, of course, a human - more interestingly, in my most recent work 
that I've submitted to a journal, the mind-body of a man or the mind-body 
of a woman.

BTW - I agree with Pavel's concept of involving the whole cosmos, to 
incorporate quantum principles relating to non-locality. Are we on the same 
page? Outrageously improbable forms (eg., where intelligent design theory 
is invoked to explain the unexplainable) can be more realistically 
accounted for when your option-space is infinite.
