I said a few days ago: "*If Everett is right and every change no matter how small causes the universe to split, then there must be some changes to my brain that are so small (one neutron in one neuron moving one Planck length to the left ) that they cause no change in conscious experience and do not degrade the memory of being John K Clark yesterday. Therefore there must be an astronomical number to an astronomical power of John K Clarks all living in different, very very slightly different, worlds. The number would be HUGE but it would still be finite, so the number of John K Clarks that see you flip a fair coin and come up heads 5 times in a row must be twice as large as the number of times he sees you do it 6 times, but there would still be a few that see him do it 100 times, maybe 1000 or even more*."
