   Strangely enough you failed to understand this basic   
   train of ideas.   
      
   There is hardware and software in computers.   
      
   Then there are brains in the bodies of many   
   animals.  Many people however confuse the   
   term mind with brain.  It is not obvious   
   how many people regularly confuse the terms   
   hardware and software or seem totally without   
   comprehension of how the two might be different   
   or similar when it comes to hardware and software   
   in computers.   
      
   You response has the look and feel of you being   
   unable to comprehend that mind and brain could   
   have two different meanings.   
      
   Do you understand the terms 'hardware' and   
   'software' with computers?  Do you think they   
   could potentially have different meanings from   
   each other in some circumstances?
