Anders,

 

You were asking the wrong question, thats why I wrote 'WHAT' in upper

case that you might realize it.

 

If you would have asked how the brain manages that this

consciousness=content works and appears as objects, sounds, tastes,

smells and all those sensations then my answer would have been that I

don't know.

 

But to ask WHAT consciousness is you always get my standard reply: It

does not exist, it exists only as its contents.
