I wrote a wonderful rebuttal to that but I want to keep it and so can't send you a copy.
My E mail message must continue into your computer or stay on my computer
or both. We can rule out both, (even if it could somehow be explained physically)
since it violates our hypothesis of duplication. If my single E mail message
existed in both computers at the same time, then that wouldn't really
be duplication, just putting one message on two computers.
