Hi @oliviackl, thanks so much for this sweet response :-) I really appreciate it!
I know it sound silly, but i always have this question in my head.
No! Not silly! I think we all have these feelings from time to time, so why not all the time? ;-) This is exactly the conclusion of my article: don't be too sure that a rock is not conscious. The important thing is to not be too sure and keep asking questions.
No, I'm not a major of anything... I'm just an old man who's had a big interest in science his whole life and has read too many articles and books and seen too many lectures and documentaries ;-) But thanks so much for the compliment!
Knowledge is irregardless of age i must say. I actually enjoyed reading your article, it very interesting and answered some of my question as well. I guessed you must be read over hundred of book related to science. I can visualize you sit in front of TV watching documentaries while hand holding a book :)
