<p>My litany of examples of entities in my life all share the fact
of "living in a bubble of nowness". The fact that those bubbles
overlap to different degrees seems to contribute to our "mutual"
apprehension of one another's consciousness (not symmetric).<br>
</p>
<p>The non-animal entities at the best probably have very narrow
bubbles in space (2x their extent) and very wide in time (hours,
seasons, years) compared to ours. The (in)famous Black Mesa a
mile or so from me or Buckman Mesa (looming over me) in their
basaltic-plug geology would seem to have a geospatial bubble a
tiny fraction their dimension but a time apprehension of hundreds
of thousands of years? <br>
</p>
<p>I'm stretching the concept of "what means consciousness"
half-playfully and half-seriously. Seeking partly to niggle out
from the crowd how much of what we attribute to another entity's
"Consciousness" is highly projective of our own (self)
Consciousness?</p>
<p>OK... we do need to split the hair of "sentient" from "conscious"
I suppose... <br>
</p>
<p>Split Away!<br>
