Wrong-o.  The fetus has never before had a mind; my hypothetically
comatose self has, although the more I get swept up in this debate
the more I begin to doubt it.  As for the off-hand equating of
pro-choice advocates with Hitler, well, such trivializing of the
Holocaust is prima facie evidence of the submitter's own brain death. 
No wonder he's worried.
