Russell is the pope of comp from this day onwards? "Comp entraîne SUP-COMP" is no more. No more spare change weakening the notion of physical supervenience (states, possible proximity relations) as special cases of computational supervenience, because by hypothesis *we survive the computational capture of the same*. Comp entraîne whatever the boss prefers, and if it doesn't, then it "would be so much the worse for computationalism." Whoa-ho-ho-ho!
