" I'm more inclined to believe in cut-and-paste
semantics "

me too, otherwise there are two of you
and you are effectively cloned (which is a different
sci-fi movie altogether :)

" I'm more inclined to
believe in cut-and-paste semantics, but what about the
matter you displace when you appear and reappear?
"

disappearing, persumably you would leave a vacuum, which
probably wouldn't do any harm, might cause a sonic boom or
something though.

you then have the problem of
appearing, which could prove painful if there is something
solid where you appear!

" And if you stay at the
same point in space when you time-travel, how does the
motion of the planet affect things "

i had
thought of that before. presumably you'd have to choose
your new space/time coordinates /very/ carefully so
you get a supply of oxygen when you arrive
:)

" or whether we *truly* have free will. "

i
think that's an unanswerable. even if we work out that
we do have free will, we may be fooling ourselves,
as we were always destined to, etc...

" >
i have *almost* settled on the name 'who
cares'

That sounds terribly uninspiring to me ;-(
"

hmmm , maybe. i /will/ think of a good name for this
game!

" but are unlikely to want to play JSW to
completion. "

i /still/ haven't completed the original
JSW... even with cheats... actually i may be able to
attempt without cheats. has anyone here finished JSW
without any form of cheating or saving
whatsoever?
