'I am become will, the collapser of wave > functions.' You haven't understood a basic point, which is important independently of the current discussion. This point is that if we live in a perfectly deterministic multiverse, our subjective experience will be probabilistic. This is because it is impossible for a being embedded in the multiverse to know in which branch he will end up. The impossibility is logical, not merely empirical. -- Stathis Papaioannou -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
