Pippy,
I try not to get too attached to any one of my ideas, but I feel that I HAVE to at least accept the reality that is presented to me day in and day out as a foundation for further study. For example I could argue that red should really be called blue and vice versa and have done that very thing, but what value is there in that?
Since I have worked at intel I have been introduced to concepts of hypothesis testing, repeatability, statistical significance, long term stability, and reproducability. These things do not prove that the fabric of reality is NOT just a computer program but they are useful concepts in day to day life. Besides it is not for me to dissprove. The burden of proof lands squarely on the shoulders of the one making the assertion that we ARE living in a computer simulation.
Besides the Great Overlord Xenu sent thetans to explain the underlying reality of the universe so there! /sarcasm
