TRICENTROL (oil, now part of Arco) CAP GEMINI (Parisian management consultants, now part of Ernst & Young) AXA (French insurance company) These are not given on any official websites but my queries are currently with the companies concerned, with no replies guaranteed.Can you beat them to it? _________________________ Does the brain create or receive consciousness?

I'm not 100% sure though... _________________________ The cost of living has not affected its popularity - Loesje

sue943 Administrator Registered: Sun Dec 19 1999 Posts: 38005 Loc: Jersey Channel Islands	That is correct. It is much better to post the question each time, or bring up the thread and add to it. There are new people here all the time who won't know about the original question and other members who won't remember it. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

I've found Tricentrol, (Trinidad central oils), but I'll repost the question properly. _________________________ Does the brain create or receive consciousness?
