I actually had this 10 guy sort of thought last night:

There was a point where an organism became self aware, and then there was a point sometime after that where an organism realized that it was the first that had become self aware and all the implications of that.

To me that's a demarcation point in all of life -- the moment a creature realized that it was different from all the things that had come before it on the earth, whether they be non-living or living, as if there was a third category, living and self-aware.

I wonder if it considered it important to spread self-awareness or if it lamented that it had more important things to deal with like just surviving.

And what kind of organism was it -- was it a mammal? Or was it something that came before that?
