I once heard of an 8-year old child who was asked to describe the
difference between "mind" and "brain".  She said that you can't see
or touch the mind, but you can weigh the brain.  

Doesn't it seem plausible that the brain is the "machine" of human
consciousness?  We can work forever on improved inorganic brains.
But how will we ever engage their minds?
