[QUOTE] At a physics meeting last October, Nobel laureate David Gross
outlined 25 questions in science that he thought physics might help
answer .... One of Gross's questions involved human consciousness ....
Part of the mystery and excitement about consciousness is that
scientists don't know what form the final answer will take. "If I said
to you I'd solved the hard problem, you wouldn't be able to guess
whether it would be a formula, a model, a sensation, or a drug," said
[Susan] Greenfield. "What would I be giving you?"
