Well what definition of 'you' do you suggest we use? What is your criterion for 
identity over time?

With regards to Bruno's steps, at this point I actually don't feel I need a 
criterion myself. What I have instead is the yes-doctor assumption. In other 
words, whatever criterion is adopted it must satisfy the condition that 
whenever I am copied, destroyed and reconstructed somewhere else, the 
reconstruction IS me. Otherwise, unless suicidal, I would never say yes to the 
doctor.

This is why I used to argue Bruno was hoisted by his own petard because its his 
yes-doctor assumption that forces me to 'accommodate the fact that Ive split'.

All the best

Chris.
