		Posted on Nov.04.2012 @ 12:38PM EDT by leoj99 Isn't Consciousness is Nothing but Memory? It is just your memory. How can you be conscious of something you don't remember or you don't know. It seems Consciousness is just a high falluting word for memory. Like in the computer - input in output out..lol
