I will suppose the message of Russell was for the list, and forward it
(without the attachment :).
Russell, dont hesitate to tell me where are you stuck in UDA. Same

If it is true that “In infinite time and infinite space, whatever can
happen, must happen, not only once but an infinite number of times,” then
what does probability mean? In your example below, there must be an
infinity of worlds where Colin Powell is president and an infinity of
Mark,
What does "happening right now" mean in the MWI concept? Einstein showed
that there is no universal "right now." Are you confusing this with a
saying that I've seen attributed to C. A. Pickover, in his book “Keys to
Infinity”? It goes “In infinite time and infinite space, whatever can

Hal:
You say that you are more careful now (and everyone should always be
more careful!); but is it not, in fact, irrelevant? This is because
the worlds in which you cause great tragedy exist even before you
arrive at a branch point that could take you to them.

I don't know if I would describe it as a drastic alteration, but I do
tend to think of my actions as provoking a continuum of results rather
than a single result. For exampl
Dear Bruno,
again a post from you with your wits. I will post my reply (if I get the
relevant points from Russell and - if I can - ) onlist.
