Whilst trawling the interwebs this fine morn, I came across Karl Pribram's Rethinking Neural Networks.
Page 320 talks about Single Cell Intelligence, Adaptive behavior in paramecium. Whilst not in any way in my area of expertise, the explanation seems far more acceptable that any of Ego-Bores drool.
Have at it Herr Judge.
Already reviewed it.

It's all conjecture. And even at that, it's all conjecture on unproven structures within the cell that even if they do exist and function as speculated, does not explain how the cell behaves like a conscious animal in the wild. No more so, in fact than neuron anatomy or CNS structure explains consciousness in human beings.

Repeat after me: True-sounding pseudo-scientific speculative gibberish.

To speak without thinking is to shoot without aiming.
