Neuroscience and multiple realization

I don't normally post up drafts of papers, but this one might be of interest to some regulars.  It is a reply to Bechtel and Mundale's 1999 Philosophy of Science paper.  Neuroscience & Multiple Realization.  Comments welcome.  I think it's still a little rough, especially the section on the "grain problem".
