self-delusion
Tonight I'm renting Blade Runner and pondering the difference between man and machine, and whether one can be completely self-deluded. (Apparently one of the replicants in the movie doesn't believe she is a machine). And of course the real question is whether Rick Deckard is a replicant.
Will such philosophical candy make its way into one of my future classes? Possibly.
It also allows me to overcome frustration at Outlook for deleting all of my email messages over the last 18 hours or so. Arrrh! Ergo, if you sent me an email last night or this morning you'll probably need to resend it. Thanks.
