do you totally unconsciously go about your daily life? No, you think about where you're going to move your body parts before you do. You have to THINK "I want to pick up that book" before you actually pick it up. How ever short a time that thought process is... We just become so fluent with coordination that we think we're not thinking.
With advances in microtechnology, expect the delay to shrink to where it's virtually identical to the real thing.
