I agree that extra bits in the "program" would tend to appear as noise rather than some miracle like a fire breathing dragon. Is it then assumed that the magnitude of this noise is unlikely to be seen - even in a delicate physics experiment because tampering is so improbable, or is it in fact measurable, arising in the form of QM uncertainty? - David
