It is sad that you don't accept the reallity. There are FPGA based neural 

networks with more than one thousand neurons on a single chip. And these systems
don't use time sharing. You too much fixed on the "technological elements" of 
biochemistry and biology. An electronics brain will be not a copy molecule by 
molecule of a biological system. Birds and planes are differents, there will 
be too some differences.

If you think the solution is some form of artificial life and if you 

understand the meaning of that, then you can produce a technology based on it. 
Why 
then not create a lab to demonstrate that ?

My objective is to do that with my ideas, it would be interesting if you 
could do the same.
