Interesting... So you're claiming that humans have powers of deduction beyond what computers possess? ;-)

They would be programming us if otherwise, wouldn't they?

I don't know... I'm probably more religious than most people on this list, but I think humans are capable of duplicating anything found in nature, including eventually ourselves; the only question is whether with computers we've succeeded in doing so for the entire /deterministic/ portion of our minds. I'm rather inclined to think we have. jcc
