LOL - I'd never thought of that! Seems like a much quicker way to refute Bostrom that what I was thinking of. I'm sure you could restructure the definition to get around this though.
My apologies, I wasn't planning to cause any damage to your well laid out argument!! lol! I think if I have any issue with science in general, then it would be that so many constructs and concepts have the same name! Caused by a kind of shifting of goal posts as it were, as a result of repair jobs as time progresses...
No need to apologise, my arguments are there to be damaged :)
Awesome, I've just given you a follow.
Nice.
