> Seems as though cells do exchange information with each other. They may not speak in our language but through cell signals, etc., they do exchange information and make decisions accordingly.-Of course cells communicate. Thank you for this presentation. I have been remiss. You have presented for dhw what I have been trying to say in simple summary. You have presented what he needs to understand my point of view. The cells are highly complex and the biochemicals which control their actions and reactions are also highly complex with tight controls. There is an enormous amount of information in cedlls which they use, roughly as automatons. There is no thought in these reactions, for that is what the lecture shows. The consciousness, as I see it, is in the provided information.
