Well, if I were a mosquito, I wouldn't of course be participating in this conversation. So ideally I would want to be able to justify why the kind of observer capable of this class of interaction might be restricted to 'physical' environments of the sort we observe. I think this may be related to Bruno's idea that our being embedded in an observably 'physical' environment is more than merely geographical - i.e. that we are somehow the beneficiaries of some 'absolute' measure battle for the emergence of observably 'lawlike' phenomena.
