> GK: I must admit, this is out of my area. The brain doesn't make use of electrons changing energy levels? How about in the axioms? (axons) Or to release neuron transmitters? (synapses) or even to "receive them?-Since the brain is a biocomputer, it uses chemical ions to transmit

> GK: I know this isn't really proven yet. But if the neuro Transmitter concentration changes are coded back into the dna for future use that would use electrons wouldn't it?-Again, I'm not fully aware of how brain plasticity is regionally controlled, but an area that is in heavy use will grow new neurons. I think I have read that the glial cells play a role.

> GK: How about when thinking is forming neural pathways? are pathways made by electrons?-No, ions.

> GK: This is out of my area so forgive me if the questions are silly.-Not silly, but the presence of consciousness from a material universe is what made Thomas Negel write his book "Mind and Cosmos", and observe that the development of consciousness cannot be explained on a materialist basis.
