    So far, we only have the evidence of primate sensory input and apparatus,
    and perhaps, (perhaps...) cultural input- can we ascertain, as yet, when
    this mind thingee actually happened? In the caves or in the trees? Before
    language or after it? Before or after we lost our hair...?

    Ain't 'mind' just a happy word to help define what our species does?
