Well, we've got the "acid" stupidity test! :-)
I've defined what precisely IMO are the elements of
consciousness in another post. I do agree that
you will get a continuum as you develop the elements
I mention and extend them to various higher levels.

I also agree that the discussion at this point is losing
much of its appeal.
