Being one of a number (0 <= N <= oo) of possible tokens of a type; existing in a space-time location, in the case og physical instantiation. Instantiation is a one-many relationship. One type, many tokens (instances). In Platonia, there is exactly one of everything. There can also be 0 instances -- non-instantiation. Which neatly solves the Harry Potter/White Rabbuit problem. We do not see WR/HP universes, because we are instantiated and they are not. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
