Hi,

	Well, that sounds interesting, but there are some more underlying problems.
Its like wanting to be a swatch designer before the invention of clockworks.  As
A modeller I agree that careful observation of consciousness is an essential and
often missing component of cognitive research.  Unfortunately we have not
come far enough to make such endeavours plausible.  But, this should not be taken as
discouraging.  It was only recently that a seminar on consciousness opened my eyes
to the pradigmatic problems of conceptualizing and modelling cognition.

Good Luck
