Well, John, I hope you survive to the Singularity so that I can have  
the pleasure of observing your reaction when you are proved wrong  
about all this, by AI's that are better able to conduct these  
experiments than us humans ;-)

Of course, by then I may have rewired myself so as to eliminate such  
trivial pleasures from my psyche!!
