Memory transplant claimed in snails

Thanks Kam for attempting to expand on what I wrote previously.

I'm well aware that I haven't here (and probably not in the past) explained myself very clearly when it comes to such matters. One of the problems in this particular thread is that the central topic is snails. In this case we can't really have any idea of a conscious state or experience as it applies to such creatures. Instead we are reduced to an observation of behaviour. That in itself leads to its own area of contention, there is a whole paradigm constructed around the idea of behaviour, one which is not without its critics.

But when it comes to memory, I'm  really talking mainly from my own experience - and herein lies a problem, each person is an individual, even placed in the same situation, the actual experience of each person will differ, perhaps slightly, perhaps to the extent of being unrecognisable. I'm wary of attempts to frame things in ways which may fit some experiences of some people, but fail completely to fit others. One might make an analogy with the dying-brain theory when attempting to explain NDEs, which fails to account for the phenomenon.
