I'm sorry, but I think you've mistaken yourself for a cognitive neuroscientist. Either that, or you have single-handedly discovered the exact moment during the gestation period that the fetus suddenly synthesizes self-consciousness, combining the myriad components of its developing central nervous system into a coherent picture of the self and surroundings. I hope you've sent letters to every scientific, religious, and philosophical body in the world; perhaps you could get letterhead printed up with "THAT'S EASY" at the top.

Don't get me wrong, I herald the start of stem cell trials, but at least put forth a precursory effort to inform yourself before posting.
