Greetings anyone,

I do not know nearly enough about science to be credible, but I do have 
questions.  What is this nervous system?  It's an analogy.  What is it? 
Somatic?  Autonomic?  Is it a thing-in-itself?  Where is its beginning and 
where is its end?  Wave?  Particle?  Space?  What is missed by defining it 
such?   To me it is a static pattern of value, conceptually imputed.  Now it 
may have some convenience, but...

Just asking.
