Hi Godfray,

I must leave my office, and I let you know just my first impression of
your last post. First I hope you will accept my apologies for having
skip unintentionally your demand for my hypotheses.

I can say yes. Nevertheless, the "bodyguards" will appear necessary
when you go through the reasoning at some point. Actually most computer
scientist who does not want to abandon physicalism after the reading of
my reasoning, does abandon comp under the form of abandoning the
Arithmetical Realism (AR) part of it!
Few abandon the YES doctor part (curiously enough).
None, until now, abandon Church thesis, but it *is* a logical way out.
But I will comment more carefully your post tomorrow. I will just print
it now.

A demain,

Bruno
