Consciousness was nature's way of solving the problem of "the heat
death of the universe", or alternately, those universes whi
as well as the items themselves,
forming a meritocracy. To continue with your landscape metaphor, I'm
trying to solve the problem at the "center of the cyclone" where small

the Romans at Sparta is making your biology *refuse* the adoption of
Roman linguistic conventions.

t sounds funny, but I've actually found that irrational
idiosyncrasies can be traced back to genetics; i.e. ancestral history.
