In fact I have 'multiple personality disorder' - from Thursday to Monday I say 'Yes' to the doctor, on Tuesday and Wednesday I am no longer the same personality because my medications have run out ;-) Well, it's Thursday here now and I have a fresh supply of anxiety- suppression pills, so I'm off to see the Doctor again!! He's talking about this scary Step 7 and I am starting to get sweaty palms, so in a fit of madness I reached into the bookshelf and drew out a Penrose volume which seemed to suggest I might do better to have a cup of tea and a little sleep... > > > >> Could an AI conceive of Platonia? >> > > Why not?

Perhaps I should put "Road to Reality" back on the bookshelf for now!
