​There is a synonym for wordplay, it's called "logic"; perhaps you've heard
of it. ​

​And if "he" means a being who remembers being a man in Helsinki, and
 Bruno Marchal
​ has said more than once that is what is meant, then the probability of
"he" experiencing  ​one and only one city is *zero*. If
Bruno Marchal

Bruno Marchal

logical alternative.

​OK fine, then he (that is to say the man in Helsinki) can expect to
experience M *and* W *from the 1p*; not that expectations, correct ones or
incorrect, have anything to do with consciousness or the unique feeling of
self.

​In general dumb people outnumber smart people, although that statistical
fact can be inverted in certain small populations, such as National Academy
of Science members or Noble Prize winners. How many members of those groups
get step 3?  ​

​I predict that Bruno will continue to chant his mantra "you confuse the 1p
and the 3p" as if that can solve all logical problems, and despite Bruno's
obvious love for homemade acronyms will for some reason not use the
timesaving YCT1PAT3P. N
ot that
​predictions​
, correct ones or incorrect, have anything to do with consciousness or the
unique feeling of self.
