Gordon, for God's sake, they cannot observe ANYTHING in
so short a time. At t1 they are still completely identical
because no time whatsoever has passed that would be sufficient
for any difference to occur.
At one instant of time there is one entity, and within
femto-seconds there are 1000, and they have had no time
to diverge at all, and yet for some crazy reason you
believe that one of them---but not the others---has
adopted a property that enables his survival and his
alone to be tantamount to the survival of the original
entity. My patience is growing thin.
