MWI: "local" or not?

There are papers *trying* to explain "local" in MWI. In example:

http://philsci-archive.pitt.edu/504/2/cracow.pdf

That's a good one, imo.

I will read this one by Rubin asap. It might make precise what I just said to Bruce.

Thanks. Will take a look asap. I hope it could help Clark and Bruce.

Note that with computationalism, we might still expect some physical non-locality, and so it is my "physical intuition" which makes me skeptical. Despite I think that physics is only an appearance emerging from arithmetic see from inside by computable objects, I tend to infer from observation and reasoning that both QM and special relativity are plausibly correct, together with some minimal amount of physical realism (but not physical fundamentalism). Non locality would hurt badly that feeling. Physics would no more have any relation with a reality independent of ourself, and would go farer in weirdness than what we can expect from digital mechanism!
