Default Re: knock, knock. Who\'s there?

What does Dennett think about stages of consciousness? Does he see consciousness in terms of progressive stages like ego-centric to ethno to world and on from there? If so, there are different ways to see reality in terms of what stage one is at in their consciousness i.e. a baby see the world in one way and then from age 2-4 they start to account for other people's awareness, to a degree, and then progresses, possibly, from there. My take is that consciousness evolves but it evolves to something that is already there and 'accessible' at any time. Thoughts?
