You bots are very clever, Mick, but you can't fool me -- obviously, because John is the only human here, you (mick) must be a bot. Hmm, but, then, so am I, but I can't tell, I mean, I look (somewhat) human, my flesh feels like what I think human flesh must feel like. I eat, and have other bodily functions -- I can't believe it, I've even fooled myself! But, then, is even John a human. I can't remember the brain teaser exactly (or how it is resolved), but I remember one something about an island full of liars (and maybe one person that told the truth) -- and, iirc, all of them would claim that they are not liars, and that everyone else is. How do you detect the one truth teller? (I'm sure I have that garbled -- maybe I should try googling for it -- ahh, ok, the liar's paradox and some variations.) I just can't believe that I'm a bot -- I mean, I even apparently changed size over the years, and show signs of aging... Wow!
