Craig anaesthesiologists do not know what underlying mechanism is responsible for the shutting down of consciousness. It just works!
The LHC is producing huge amounts of data even on idle. The fat pipes can barely transmit the data to where it will be analysed.
Quantum computing will reveal a universe more strange than we can even imagine.
Although I have no concrete evidence I am sure that consciousness is based on interactions at the quantum level. There is a bit of evidence where photosynthesis relies on quantum tunnelling for charge transfer. So if photosynthetic bacteria and by evolution plants can by trial and error harness quantum effects who knows what else is hidden in four billion years of biological evolution.
Have you ever had a problem without an easy solution and then hours if not days later a possible answer seems to come to mind from nowhere?
What is important in science is good questions, not to sit smugly and think we have all the answers.

MS word does strange things or I am stupid.
