With all the threads lately questioning what's real, or simulated, I've got one I need answers to.
I can say to you...imagine (I'm using an inanimate object because this is a family forum) a cheesburger. Visualize the upper and lower buns with the meat hanging out, lettuce edges showing, and you can see the cheese, maybe even a slice of tomato, and there could be onion too, some sauce or ketchup dripping from the edges. Now the questions:
WHAT Is It? - This question is directed to actually what are you seeing? I know you are saying its a mental image, a graphic thought, a picture in the mind. BUT, what are you actually seeing? It's not like you see it with your eyes.
WHERE IS IT? - This question is directed to where the heck is that picture? I know, you're saying its in my mind. BUT where does that image actually exist? Is it like nowhere in particular, but you can see the cheesburger in all its glory, in full color. You can bring up that image any time you want... from where? Hey, that image may be good enough for you to smell that cheesburger.
