It was only a simple remark in that post...do you really think that I could phrase any answer that would satisfy you? All I was doing was commenting using a short phrase that it's interesting to review my own posts and note how my opinions change...or don't change... as the years go by.

We can get into the phenomenology of self-reflective awareness some other time....if you REALLY want to. That, from my viewpoint, would involve the entire concept of the "eidetic reduction" in Husserl. Kind of a semester's study, if you have the time, books and a qualified guide. I tried it one time at the Univ. of Kansas in 1970....I'm kinda rusty on the details.
