@ Rhiz: do you also think you couldn't dream that too? Is what we imagine different to what we can dream?

Fr0d0,

Correctemundo! Dreams are different than reality and qualitativly NOT the same. I've done quite a lot of lucid dreaming and it is cool, but never as cool as actually performing the actions in real life. This is why people try to hard to actually get together in real life instead of just dreaming about or imagining having sex. Wink

Fr0d0,

I just saw the movie, "Surrogates" it was awesome! I highly reccomend it. In the movie people interact with the real world through a chair in their house that is connected to a robot that may or may not look like them. I would be very tempted to click into one of those! Rock climbing with no rope or harness would be awesome! I don't do that now for the obvious reasons of my sudden death were I to make one mistake.

As for that instinctive drive, yep it is strong and obviously we can't fool that drive with dreams OR imagination.
