From Mike Sherwood:

Re: What is consciousness? Study aims to settle debate (May 20): Better idea: Disembodied consciousness is supposed to be able to pass through walls. Have a code word on a notice board outside the theatre. Not put it up untill patient is behind closed doors. Have it taken down before she/he leaves the theatre.

More rigorous example: can the disembodied conciousness read a message in a closed safe?
