I would be interested in your thoughts about the following.



First, it seems to me that it's possible that there could be two

signals, say three minutes of music each, where I can't distinguish

one signal from the other when I compare them, switching back and

forth, but where, nonetheless, I get greater pleasure from listening

to the first one (in its entirety) than to the second.



The above is obviously self-contradictory.


Oh? I don't think that's necessarily true at all. People find that they
"like"
one thing over another without being able to tell anybody why all the
time.


And then we categorize it as a disconnected personal preference and are
generally wise enough to not attach any other meaning to it.

You like blue? Good! ;-)

If you can't distinguish the two signals by any conscious means, how can
you
distinguish them and consciously know it?


I don't recall anybody saying that one could.


Then the claim has doubly self-destructed itself.

There are such things as useless opinons, and I think we have just
identified a whole class of them.
