In an uncountably infinite multiverse, the relative measure of me, humanity, Earth, the galaxy and probably the Hubble sphere is effectively zero. At least, I think it is. In a quantised multiverse which allows every instance of a finite number of 'worlds' to exist (a very large number, of course) then the absolute measure of, say, me is finite (though very small), and one might in principle be able to work out what it is. But in a quantised multiverse I'm not sure QTI would hold. Or *can* the multiverse be quantised in that sense? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
