    I just noticed that I had the title of Chapter 11 wrong in the "Announcement" box at the top of this page. I have now corrected it -- Chapter 11 is "Soul, Sensation, and Mind"

    As of today we have opened the discussion, but not really gotten started, into Chapter 12. We discussed at some length the reasons why the issue of a "neutral state" is controversial, but there is much more to discuss on this chapter. We'll come up with a date and time for the next session and schedule it soon. Thanks!

    I see we haven't updated this thread or moved on to complete Chapter 12 for a couple of months now. When someone is ready for another one of these sessions please post and we will get started again!
