But a few thumps on the body and the "abstract person" won't think
either. So far as we have observered *only* bodies think. If comp
implies the contrary isn't that so much the worse for comp.
In a virtual environment, destroying the body destroys the
consciousness, but both are actually due to the underlying
computations.
How can those thumped know it's virtual. A virtual environment with
virtual people doing virtual actions seems to make "virtual"
virtually meaningless.
It is the difference between life and second life. Reality, and
relative dreams.
