Was Roger Penrose not completely insane when he proposed his Orch OR theory of the mind? Still doesn't explain the hard problem of consciousness, but a step closer?

Heck yeah, big Sir Roger Penrose fan and although this might not be definitive proof I'm looking forward to more research into the matter
