Cool Shalom, thanks for the insights. The thing that interested me most is the idea that there's a definite transition to where you feel awake and you notice that everyone around you is asleep.

And to Magi, yup. He says we're unconsious asleep beings who don't know what we're doing and can't control what we're doing because we merely follow our impulses and habits (which are either adopted through immitation or given to us from other machines). You can think about it this way, can you control what your emotions and thoughts and physical habits are? Are they all in-line with one another and cohesive? If your mind fights with your emotions, and if your moments aren't deliberate, why is this if you're a singular entity?
