Temple Grandin is an autistic professor of animal science at the University of Colorado whose techniques for calming cattle as they moved into the processing plant changed the beef industry in the U.S. In the 2010 movie about her life, Temple is confronted with the death of her science teacher and mentor. After viewing his lifeless body, she asks her mother with characteristic abruptness, "Where do they go?" Where do people go who were present at one moment, inside their bodies, and in the next moment are suddenly gone? Could it really be that people like you and me are really just the result of very complex chemistry which only gives the illusion of being a real person? Uplook Magazine, March 2012, p.9.
