What happens when questions are presented to an individual?

Are they not compelled to make reference to some record stored in the brain? If the answer to a question is not readily available, does it not become necessary to run an internal simulation? To determine what, given an input variable and a personal rendition of indeterminate nature to install it into, will be the considered outcome.

the same cannot be said. Since cutting the conduit between ear and brain will not release reality. Because reality has been translated into another form. And to experience this ersatz "reality" the brain must interpret whatever reality has been turned into. Through decryption of a sound previously encrypted into an electrical signal. No longer presenting direct correlation to its original nature. Even if that original sound is detected and registered perfectly by the ear. And no distortion is introduced during the conversion processes. The final interpretation will still be a function of the individual concerned.

Consider this; all heads do not contain the same agreed dictionary definitions. Words are puzzles. Selected by one brain to encapsulate a particular thought. Then passed to another brain for resolving, through use of a distinctly different code book.

Suppose someone dear to a person was erroneously reported as having died. Would that person not morn, for someone who is in actuality alive?

And if someone dear to a person died, but that information was not made known to them. Would that person fail to morn for someone, who was deceased?

Where then, is the location of the "reality" being referenced?

How, and from what, is a rendition constructed?

Consider a physician�s stethoscope. Reality enters at one end, and passes out at the other. Cut that tube at any point, and reality will be released. However, when that reality encounters the human ear and is conducted to the brain,

What an individual "sees", is not the result of looking through a hole in the side of the head. Where the view could be observed without modification. The process is more akin to scrutiny of a television screen. Where a remote camera (the eye), converts an image into a coded signal. Which is subsequently decoded by a monitor. Thus the system is not passive (free of introduced anomalies). But rather active (altered by the characteristics of, and limitations inherent in, the mechanism).
