How Does Your Spirit Find Your Brain?

Well fuck me I worked out how the addressing functions on consciousness.

The basic question: why doesn't the mind follow around the individual atoms that are being used to transmit it? If the RNA strand you're copying (badly) to implement consciousness ionizes and then re-neutralizes, why doesn't your mind split off with the wandering electron instead of staying with the rest of the molecule? If you made an artificial one, would you have to somehow trap the individual particles you're measuring? You shouldn't, but why not exactly?

It's a size and resonance thing. 

A mind has to have some minimum size to be coherent, because yes your mind will wander off with lost electrons - which then fall out of resonance. Meanwhile the incoming electron gets forced into resonance with the rest of the transceiver, as opposed to forcing the rest of the transceiver into resonance with the electron, because the transceiver is large compared to the individual electron. 

If the total transceiver isn't large compared to individual particles, then it will have spotty reception. It will get possessed all the time due to a series of mistyped envelopes. A medium-sized one will get possessed when it gets excited and thus unstable. 

Presumably even a very large brain can lose its own signal if it gets excessively overexcited. Though at the same time having a lot of memories should buffer the effect.  It has to use memories of some type or another to re-boot after sleeping, and that system clearly works just fine.
