Simpsons History of Mind and Matter

"What is mind? No matter!
What is matter? Never mind!"

Classic (apparently) 1st Simpsons episode and therefore Bart Simpson's first words ever prove he's a cognitive neuroscientist.
Homer's first words however, prove he's a (cognitive) nihilist.
But that's why we love him.

I wanted to comment on your heroes post from a month ago. Alas the comments link beneath the post is missing, strangely enough. I smell a conspiracy!

Alright, thanks.

Don't know how it disappeared.
I would opt for spontaneous genetic mutation-- thereby losing a trait that's crucial for post survival in the blog jungle.

I fulfilled my role as god and fixed it.
Feel free to comment now.
