Based on research and experimentation I am doing it is clear to me that

As for Sagan, I think he got the last laugh - posthumously. I think he

"Contact". If one reads the novel it's pretty obvious that

I love Roger Penrose great thinker. Hameroff is too out there. I think
Penrose has dissociated from Hameroff because he went too far.
Orch-OR is not the best theory of consciousness. It has been debunked in
many different ways.

They are not the only ones attacking cold fusion, after all.
By the way,
The county I live in (Marin Co. CA) is not large in population - but does
have 18 branch libraries with magazine sections. I suspect that all of them
subscribe to Sci-Am.
