I just don't see how anyone sensible can entertain the question of
whether or not the mind is a physical mechanism. What things
in the universe are *not* physical mechanisms? Saying that
the mind might not be a physical mechanism is tantamount to
saying that it's magic, supernatural, etc. It is medieval thinking.

Consciousness--it's all in your head.
