From the "Philosophical Parables" column:

Once, Anil Seth was frying eggs and pondering emergence:

Eggs and sausage separately are not the same as when they come together to form scrambled eggs.

Yet he failed to consider that the stove was induction-based and generated complex electromagnetic fields acting as an analog computer.

Thus, another mind took possession of Anil, which is why one shouldn't trust everything he publishes.
