Asa H, being conscious of

Bertrand Russell said "Consciousness: a person is said to be conscious of a circumstance when he uses words, or images of words, to others or to himself, to assert the circumstance." (Collected Papers of Bertrand Russell, vol. IX)  My artificial intelligence Asa H did just that, for instance, when it suffered a collision and reported it to me in natural language, "collision."
