When the brain opiates flood, a near virtual reality ensues that is much more undetectable than some hallucinations—almost like a dream taking over.

Opium addicts have some measure of these experiences, too, as opium pretty much fits into the brain's receptors (but doesn't quite, so it destroys them by making them clogged and useless, so then need more to get the same high), but these drug trips pale in comparison to the brain's opiate flood.

I once saw my whole room and night stand, even moved things around and swore I was awake, but then I really woke up.

I guess this is why I am studying Chalmers and consciousness....if I ever stumble across a piece of information that I just suddenly know then I know that I will have found a possible explanatory story to make my wondering conclusive....

When I die, I'll make some notes to post here, but you all will have to wait 30 years or more.

Damn right. When you are dead, there is nothing else happening. No part of you is alive...

Ding, dong, the witch is dead.
Really, really dead.
Deader than a door-nail.

Absolutely, totally, utterly, deadly, perfectly, entirely, quite, thoroughly; definitely, certainly, positively, categorically, unquestionably, undoubtedly, surely; in every way, one hundred percent dead.

As youth is sometimes wasted on the young, life can lost in the living, for, everyone dies, but not everyone lives.
