Thanks Patrick. It is really sad.

In my opinion, as far as cluster concepts go, "consciousness" is a messier concept than "attention." But I think we need to talk about this from both an empirical and theoretical point of view.

Thanks Tuomas. I think that even if attention turns out to be a cluster concept, it is still useful in thinking about different cognitive functions, some of which might be more essential for consciousness than others.

Thanks Jeremy! I wish this had happened before but better late than never.
