Absolutely agree re neuroscience's lack of answers (hence Richard's
assertion that his system is based on what cognitive science knows about
brain architecture is not a smart one - the truth is "not much at all".)
Um, excuse me?
Let me just make sure I understand this: you say that it is not smart
of me to say that my system is based on what cognitive science knows
about brain architecture, because cognitive science knows not much at
all about brain architecture?
Number one: I don't actually say that (brain architecture is only a
small part of what is involved in my system).
Number two: Cognitive science does too know a good deal about brain
architecture!
I *know* cognitive science. Cognitive science is a friend of mine.
Mike, you are no cognitive scientist.... :-).
