I have some comments on your paper at: MS Word version:
http://www.frii.com/~allsop/qualia.doc (listed in
your previous post about Questions for Ray Kurzweil).
>From Brent Allsop's draft on "The Qualia Theory of Consciousness"
"Steve Lehar, a recent independent researcher, has done more work with
theories like this one, by far, than anyone else I know. For some reason,
completely inexplicable to me, he has had troubles getting much of his work
published."
1) I would remove the numerous editorial comments (such as above), because
they weaken your argument by making it appear you have some ulterior motive,
that you are a "True Believer," and you want everybody to "see the light." -- I
assume you want to be taken seriously, and not just as a disciple. So, no more
editorialization.
[I will not present my other comments to the ExI group. My
comments will be by private email. I cannot recommend the paper in its
present form. -- Davin]
