this seems a bit (emotionally?) out of context .. the discussion was my
emphasis on a link of truth to the distinction of 'correct/incorrect' and
the tracing of that feeling to territorial marking and the use of waypoint
mapping. The link is to earlier work on rats running mazes and the activity
of the hippocampus, the common ground is the method and the components used,
especially the hippocampus and its known process of linkage of new 'moments'
of conscious experience into some sort of whole.
best,
Chris.
