Well, you are right; us Zombies are just a pattern of atoms, as is a lump of clay. I hope that
by Extro 5 we can get enough Zombies together to take you Humans on in soft ball. Of course,
we will not really be enjoying ourselves the way you will, but our pattern of atoms will give
the appearance that we are.
By the way, John, not being a Zombie, have you given up hope on being uploaded? Was that what
you meant by the "Life is too short" part? Do you think that we are going to fail in our
attemts to make life quite long? Or perhaps you are hoping to hold on just long enough for us
to find a way to program weird ineffable stuff?
