The Power of Neurons

You don't have any awareness of all these microscopic neurons and their massive dialogue that they're chattering away in. If you represented each spike by a single photon of light, the action inside your skull at any moment would be blinding. The only thing you know is whether you spilled the coffee on yourself or not. All the action is happening at the level of billions of biological cells, and you don't even know how you do it. Now, it's not just your cup of coffee, it's everything in your life. It's how you drive a car.
