Consciousness

What is consciousness? What are the processes that lead to it coming about? What structures bring it about? Is it merely an illusion or is it the truth?

I think it'll take scientists hundreds of years of research to eventually understand this. Either that or someone genius - on the level of Einstein - will come along and throw back the curtain to reveal it to us. We seem to be short of geniuses in the 20-21st century though. Well, "the wheelchair guy" exists.

The first time it happens, the dog has been pooping on the carpet for n months, the second time it happens the dog has been pooping on the carpet for n+1 months. They are different situations.
