The water-seeker thought experiment
Imagine a complete science of neurophysiology can determine the existence of a thought via a brain-o-scope—and a person possesses the "I want water" thought neurophysiology but can't become conscious of the thought.
The connection principle is then disproved by example.

Argument anticipated by John Searle (1990a).
