Look, if you are the kind of person that doesn't believe in scientific facts please leave I don't know what you are doing here.

I talke dto robert about this, and if the thread starter is ok with the derivation of posts, it can continue. And in fact my discussion with antonio about fingers and intelligence is connected to mike's mathematics whcih is supposed to be applied to biology also.

Many experiments. Just look for them in the internet, te websites of research institutes are quite good. Some are of the kind of showing the face of a human that the elephant had seen 1,000 years ago and remembers, the see this in behaviour.

Not only our dreams are subconsciousness. Our thoughts that happen not in direct mental observations are, like for example when you are looking at a list of numbers trying to search for patterns. But also all the feelins are part of sbuconsciousness. And by consciouss I already explained that I meant the ability to have a posteriori evidence of progression. An elephant has to think about how to go up stairs every single time. We don't.
