How about a "Philosophy" topic where we could discuss philosophical issues raised in Peter's writings (eg. consciousness, self-awareness, etc.)?

Great idea. I was hoping someone would start one. See the introductions thread in the Discussion section and Peter's pithy post suggestions ~ at least two of us were wishing to discuss the philosophical issues, and now you make three.

Were you perhaps meaning like a separate forum section (sub-forum) dedicated to philosophy? So that it would be separated out from the general discussion?
If not, anyone is free to start topics/threads on whatever they'd like =)

I am waiting for George Berger because he is superbly versed in Philosophy, and I will await what twnf would like so something materializes on the philosophical themes coursing through Peter's books

I guess I meant a sub-forum, like this "Support/Suggestions" section and the "Art" section.

That sounds like a great idea. So it will be the fourth sub-forum. General Discusison, Art, Support/Suggestions and Philosophical Themes (or somesuch) then?

Yes So we will await that happening. Did you see member George Berger's thoughts on Blindsight in the Introductions section? He is another person very interested in the Philosophical Themes…
