Also I am intrested why you had to bring up this vague experiment, and couldn't just simply answer the question what is really different between cells and self-replicating, commucating robots.

As for the article. Is 'nonlocality' the new, hip, new-age word or something? Anyhow, googling the Authors name gives no serious hits, no well-respected sites on which mr Thaheld appears. All I find is a lot of mentions of him by new-agey folks. Normally, new-agey folks don't really go with the best kinds of science, just look at how they raped quantum-mechanics.

Even if the experiment was proper, which would be surprising since the reseacher has been completely ignored by everyone but people that really really want to hear that kind of things. Even if it was true, it would still prove little. For one, there is no reason to think Neurons would be the only kind of matter capable of 'nonlocality'.

Lets say either respected universities that have the position to change the scientific community either never did this kind of research, or the research you linked me is obcure for what ever reason, and lets assume because it can not be recreated, since the research was faulty.

I hate to play this card, but things that give you only 10 google hits normally arn't all that groundbreaking, or true, for that matter

Oh, the premiss that individual cells are special somehow because they make a silly sound (actually, they don't even make a sound), is still completely silly, by the way.
