As has been shown, that is difficult to argue with conventional logic
and reasoning, so let's try a completely different mind experiment. I
want you, right now, to try to mind-swap yourself into your cat, or your
computer or anything else you might find more suitable.

I presume the experiment will fail. So why did it? What evidence do you
have that the experiment will succeed if certain pre-conditions are met?
What are those preconditions?


(I have a whole pile of fresh material along this line of thought so
please bear with me. ;)
