Dear Matti,

I think I missed something in your discussion of the connection between
topological geometrodynamics (TGD) and consciousness. In your view are
geiger counters and the cerebellum conscious?

If so, then I think you are using the word conscious in a different way than
most of the rest of us. We seem to be conscious of our cerebral activity but
not of our cerebellar activity.

If not, then you will have to tell us what is there about the cerebrum that
can collapse wave packets that is different from geiger counters and the
cerebellum.
