whether man exists. Since computers live in the realm of electrical impulses, they would never have felt nor seen a human. One computer might say, “I reject the notion of man because such a concept interferes with my sexual freedom. If I want to interface [have sex] with Sally Hard D rive, I don’t want some man telling me I can’t do it.” Another computer might say “Man is sur ely a myth, for we can trace our evolution from the primordial metal fields of wire and solder, which formed the first computer chip by chance, to calculators, to personal computers, to mega computers like our Uncle Mac and Aunt Microsoft. Who needs man? The evolution of computers is so obvious!” One computer might respond, “Yes, the concept of man is rather frightening. If man exists, then rumors of the pulled plug may be true after all! Further, it would mean that we are accountable to man for our performance. I totally reject such a scary notion.”
