A reflex action, right? So you reckon there's no thought involved?(Even if your body is ahead of your thoughts?)
EDIT: This will be the same as someone writing computer algorithm which can some how leave your PC and get another object to move.
Granted you can get a computer to control a robot via radio waves, but all that will be doing is sending signals to the robot which instructs the robot to do the moving. I suppose you can develop something which analyses your brain activity and you control something else by thought (via radio waves) by the same means, but it isn't the "thoughts" that is physically doing the moving.

It is my contention that everything we ever do, every bit of life that we live,no matter how concious, is built on 'thought'.
