My measure (not mass) does not halve, since my measure
is to be taken over all MWI branches that sustain a Lee
Corbin.  Being able to completely identify with all other
Lee Corbins means that I understand that some small
fraction of us were hospitalized because of a traffic accident
today coming home from work.

But my measure did diminish today, in all probability, because
in some branches I was killed. (Yes, it's also possible that there
was a singularity-type breakthrough that permitted a great
spawning of copies of me, but I don't think it likely---i.e. though
yes, it happened, the measure was very very small.)
