Am I a brain? or JUST a brain?

"You do not know that you are not a brain, suspended in a vat full of liquid in a laboratory, and wired to a computer which is feeding you your current experiences under the control of some ingenious technician scientist (benevolent or malevolent according to taste). For if you were such a brain, then, provided that the scientist is successful, nothing in your experience could possibly reveal that you were; for your experience is ex hypothesi identical with that of something which is not a brain in a vat. Since you have only your own experience to appeal to, and that experience is the same in either situation, nothing can reveal to you which situation is the actual one." (Introduction to Contemporary Epistemology, 10)
zicea un nene, mai destept de felul lui, Jonathan Dancy.

Treaba e ca la ora asta (pacat, as spune) nu prea imi pasa. Acum as vrea (cu trimitere directa la Matrix, ca doar nu degeaba l-am vazut de atatea ori, in mai bine decat 3 limbi straine) sa stau frumusel si sa simt gustul vinului si-al fripturii.
Atingerile apei pe peiele cand fac dus sau cand ploua, si aerul rece care-mi ingheata narile in timpul iernii. Chiar si daca sunt doar niste senzatii.
