Neurologists are confident these cases withstand all proposals to attribute postictal "amnesia" to memory failure

Is there an academic paper that makes that argument? If so, could you reference it?

I have dozens, some of them so good I have actually printed hardcopies of the PDFs-- sometimes misplacing the DOIs in the process.

I will get some though; some of them are, I believe, required reading, for those of us looking at the human brain for lessons about the relationship between "consciousness" and other functions. I have a particularly interesting one (74 pages, but it's a page turner) that I wll try to find the original computer record of. Found it and most of them on PubMed.

If we are in a different thread string in a couple days, I will flag you. I'd like to pick a couple of good ones, so it will take a little re-reading.
