38 years with IBM led me to believe some people were "real" and some,
possibly at least, not real, or bi-cameral -- or puppets -- or some such
thing. Often these perceptions were developed over the internal electronic
mail network, which I began using over there as early as 1983 or so.
My perception is that you (and Jim Bell, to name a second player here) are
"very real." I expect fruitful discussions with you two -- and many others
-- to go on for the next several millenia. < G >
