Interesting topic, but I think the experiences are just "whatever movie your brain plays for you" in order to protect you during death, a psychological equivalent of going into shock.
Basically your brain is like an oven. You cut off the electricity and it stops working but it may stay warm for some time, sometimes longer than you expect. The main difference is that it is unlikely that your brain will work again if you plug it back in a week later because of the damage done when it stops working.
I also don't think consciousness (aka heat) can exist after the brain (aka oven) has ceased function for extended periods. I wish I believed otherwise, it's kinda a downer.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
