But the human mind is still similar in the aspect that it is a complex set of chemo-electrical impulses, and some chemical reactions. In either case, mind or program, there is no physical whole that we can directly view or handle, is there? Measure, maybe... but that is a different thing all together. (By the way, I has pizza for dinner tonight... How did you know?!)
