Well, don't ask me. I haven't a clue. Neurologist David Eagleman admits he doesn't have any idea, either. But he's got an amazing imagination, as evidenced by his book SUM: Forty Stories of the Afterlife, in which he suggests quite a few possibilities in vignettes that range from amusing to unnerving.
The point of SUM, he says, is to ask the Big Question: "What are we doing here on this planet, in this cosmos? None of us has any freaking idea."
Read my interview with Eagleman here and see him at 8 p.m. Wednesday at Books & Books in the Gables..
I want "I'm a Possabilian" T-shirt. Do they have them at Target? Or where?
