Dirk,

It would seem that, in principle, you could derive, from your models, that carbon-based chemistry will give rise to life, and that life will give rise to brains, and as all brains have consciousness (I think that's what you claim), consciousness is inevitable.

Can you derive, in principle, a time scale for this progression?

Presumably, also, you can describe where else in the universe we will find life, and how it will behave.

From your model, what is it about carbon that allows the possibility of life?

Regards
lanecove
