Only if it is assumed to be absurd that the counterfactually incorrect recording instantiates a conscious moment. Not only is that not obvious, but also a number of people, including you IIRC, say that the issue of counterfactual correctness is a side issue, not really relevant. ISTM it is critical - without resolving that issue, the MGA doesn't proceed, nor is it clear what it even means if it were to. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof Russell Standish Phone 0425 253119 (mobile) Principal, High Performance Coders Visiting Professor of Mathematics hpco...@hpcoders.com.au University of New South Wales http://www.hpcoders.com.au ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
