>>>>>Neuroanatomically and chemical soup are very subtly different<<<<
Can I be left-brained here for a minute?
I analogize neurons to wires. Analogize synapses to speakers (they look kinda like speakers) and I guess microphones, too, at the same time. The impulse comes down from the brain (or up from the sensory neuron) down the wire to the speaker-synapse, and the signals come out (neurotransmitters - serotonin, calcium, like that) and they go to the microphone-synapse, and the signal goes on down the next wire.
Isn't the "soup" what's in the blood and the lymph? Maybe, I'll concede for the sake of the argument(see, this is really left-brained) that the neurotransmitters are "soup."
But I don't think the architecture, aka neuroanatomy, is "soup."
Unless you mean, maybe, that "it" isn't "me" - that "me" is subject to "it" but "it" can change and "I" am always me. |
