I'm sorry. I'm with Penrose. If a Pet scan lights up the amygdala, you still don't know all the connections,or exactly how it functions. Pet scans tell us functions of areas. Not how to connect the billions upon billions of neurons thru trillions of synapses. 
> Apropos of my comment that recognizing a brain area that lights up for a given stimulus doesn't really tell you how it is working 'inside':-
Here is an excellent study showing how complicated one neuron is and how connections are modified as we learn. There is a whole system for that emphasis. Still with Penrose.-http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/09/090907142302.htm
