Message-ID: <227@ptsfa.UUCP> Date: Fri, 13-Jul-84 18:19:36 EDT Article-I.D.: ptsfa.227 Posted: Fri Jul 13 18:19:36 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 15-Jul-84 10:14:59 EDT References: <7639@rochester.UUCP> Organization: Pacific Bell, San Francisco Lines: 13 <> I am currently (07/13/84 1503 PDT) 2/3 of the way through with "The Origin of Consciousness ...". I find it quite intriguing and not implausible. After reading some of Jaynes' speculations, I find myself with my mouth open - quite a bit of it really makes sense. If this book is taken the way Darwin's "Origin of Species" and "Descent of Man" were, I can't wait to see what the Creationists will have to say. I shouldn't say more until I've finished. So until then... Ken Olsen {ihnp4,ucbvax,cbosgd,decwrl,amd70,fortune,zehntel}!dual!ptsfa!kmo
