Very interesting. I'd love to see one. But I keep thinking back to an
article that Bernard Williams, the philosopher, wrote about 20 years
ago 'what it's like to be a bat' - the point being that we can never
know. So we can never know how a fish sees things.


The philosopher who wrote "What is It Like to be a Bat?" is Thomas Nagle.
