    Well, then in that sense individual cells of your body would be conscious, too, as there are myriad examples of migrating cells that move along a chemical gradient within you.

That's what I'd argue. I believe our cells have a form of consciouness that is much more simple than the organism they are a part of.

Doesn't [decision] imply some dualism? :) IMO trying to define what constitutes a decision just moves the ball.
