No problem. I see you assume a physical universe. I don't. We have just different theories. Note that if you understand the whole UDA, you should realize that the price of assuming a physical universe (and wanting it to be related with our experiences *and* our experiments) is to postulate that you (and us, if you are not solipsistic) are not turing emulable. No problem. (I like to separate issues concerning the choice of theory, and issues concerning propositions made *in* a theory, or accepting that theory).
