I read "Why Occam's Razor" tonight after posting my last response
(despite having a Federal court brief begging for attention). I didn't
have time to wade through the technical parts very thoroughly, but in
general I found it a very good summary of many of the topics we have
been frequently

Russell,
When I stated in the original reply that pulling information out of
other worlds in the MWI context was prohibited by physics, I was
referring to information about those universes. As I stated, obviously
you can create a superposition to utilize processing power in other
universes,

Of course the worlds need to be prepared in just the right way, of
course...<
I suppose these "other worlds" are potential life-form carrying bodies of
this (our) universe, because as far as I know
I agree with you Stathis. That's why I think MWI, QTI and COMPI lead to
the Relative SSA, and relative immortality.
The SSA you mention is the Absolute SSA which does not make sense, imo.

Dear aet.radal.ssg,
You make a few interesting points which under normal circumstances I would
be happy to continue discussing with you, but the primary motivation for
your posts seems to be anger that I have raised the topic of mental illness.
I am sorry if I have upset you, and I hope that if
