Question?

How can we design a system based on neuron communication when we do
not know how it really works?

One other weakness is it's inability to deal with inconsistencies.  
How could they design the rules to be fired?

It would require a knowledge engineer.  Who will come forward?  Whose
neuron?

Answers much appreciated.
