Well, perhaps you missed the smile emoticon.

But seriously I see that we have two categories of things and objects 1) the real kind and 2) the computer simulated kind. 

I make a clear distinction between those two categories of things. Computer simulations of real things do not equal those real things they simulate, and some "simulate" nothing real in the first place.
