Mr., The only reason you could build a version of you from all the metadata you've collected is because you have, over time disciplined yourself to fit into that particular box. This has happened to you over time and by natural process of the life you chose to lead. Unfortunately for you, that is neither the most efficient nor the most correct way for a human to think (maybe not even for machines).<br>Computer science guys are so used to assuming that it is second nature to them. Well, at some point, you will have minimized out of existence something that really is essential to humanity. When, not if that happens, I wonder whether their will be enough real evidence around to analyze what it is and how to correct it.<br>It may have already happened and we don't know it. Modern life is filled with stupid redundancies and problems that never were a real part of life before and no one even discusses them. We're all so anxious to abandon human failings that we haven't the insight or the humility to preserve them. You, for example, are a geek. You're shedding your humanity like a snake sheds it's skin and I find it revolting. That is not important to you because I'm nobody, but I reason, and there WILL be another you and another me in this.
