What is consciousness?

It's been a while - but I love these kinds of topic :) Code of ethics for the meet-up everyone! 1) Share your relevant point in 2-3 minutes or less each time.

2. We are proud that we are respectful and open-minded to the ideas of others. (I.E waiting for your turn, mindful comments) please help us keep it that way.

3. Comment on the point and naturally refrain from commenting on the person or saying "you" - it can easily become an ad hominem.... :( Learn more at: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ad+hominem

4. Please bring 50 cents to help keep Shy Philosophers alive.

Thanks everyone! Please bring your genuine thoughts and ideas - we all look forward hearing them :)
