Well, I do know to the extent anyone knows I guess (it's what I work on) but yes, the central idea is completely ridiculous.

[/ QUOTE ] Although CC goes much further than mirror neurons, as someone that works in the feild what is your opinion on mirror neurons?

There's plenty of literature on mirror neurons and their role in learning. Considering what is known about observational learning it would have been surprising if they never found such neurons.
I suspect that someone in one of these pseudosciences grabbed the idea and ran with it in a direction it's not supposed to go to.
I'm not sure what you're asking about otherwise.
