In an earlier post, I indicated that I not only agreed with Dan Dennett on the lack of a “Cartesian Central Meaner,” but even went beyond that. In the years since I first read “Consciousness Explained,” (which waggishly should have the better title of “Dan Dennett’s Idea of Consciousness Explained”), I’ve become more accepting of this idea.
Who has? Well, I said that I have.
Oops.
I think I (dang it, did it again, like the Knights Who Used to Say Nee) have a paradox worthy of Zeno.
There is no “I” (can’t say “I have no ‘I,’” can I [“I”?]) to accept that “I” don’t exist.
What a tangled web I (“I”) weave. Doug Hofstadter would just looove this one.
