Did you decide it was b.s after reading it?

If so, you have got your answer.

I read it, and it was still simply opinion, it doesn't explain how
this "computer" is powered, what happens during the rapid cellular
degeneration after death, and a thousand more questions that would
have to be answered for it to be a working theory.

In other words, bullshit.

Look Boffle, you're a graduate physicist and so am I. You
know very well I wouldn't publish a scientific claim that
wasn't credible science.. Post a legitimate scientific
criticism or screw.

Me. I find it interesting to while away a few idle minutes.
Now I'm off to play a bit of Tetris.

Nonsense.
