What fact????


Do you not believe in fact, Cecil?

You can't even prove that you exist. :-)


There's evidence indicating that I do, and none indicating that I
don't. So I'm at least a valid theory. What I can't prove is that I
don't exist. For a number of reasons.

Personally Jim, I doubt your existence. I have a theory you are much
more likely to be a "brain in a bottle", you are nothing more than a
brain in some aliens laboratory and housed within life support
equipment, the body you see as yours is only imagined and a very good
illusion.


Kewl!!!


Some of us here are just like you, but I am real (a "control" in the
experiment you are involved in.) And, I do understand how all this
can be so confusing.


Your post brings to mind my theory of newsgroups, John. Many people do
not look at the other poster(s) as human beings. It is just some sort of
interactive sparring match with their computer. Kind of like the old
game Zork, but with infinite variability, and only one room filled with
"the enemy"..

Mike:

Thanks! You were able to see the difficulty in my words and say what I
wanted to, and better!
