There's a Ghost In The Shell: Standalone Complex (anime) episode about
something like that. Some film maker puts his ghost (sort of like soul) into
a machine, about the size of a toaster oven, that when people connect to it
(cyber-brains, this is the future after all) they find it so compelling that
they never leave the "theater".
Besides what ISN'T flawed?
I carry around a penny from the year I was born. That penny was chosen
because it looks like it got a good whack on an edge and somehow that just
seemed appropriate.

time is cyclical, not just linear. the "same" recurrences
because you are moving past the same "line" drawn out from
the center of the spiral... but you've increased in many
ways (measure the new circuit's diameter)

John, if you aren't flawed in some way, you don't belong among the
living. You belong either as a creature of myth and legend, or as a
relic, a fragment of finger bone stuff in a velvet-lined box.
I know your flaws, at least some of them, and believe it or not, I
admire you for them. Even the ones that almost cost me my job.

I believe you, John. I only mention it for contrast. I don't know you
real well, but I feel a distant, pretty strong, respect for you. As a
living part of a living society. It makes me want to say I like you,
though I can't quite justify that, apart from some things I know about
you from mutual friends. But I think I would enjoy meeting you sometime,
perhaps with Ponette as an Introductor, if you can even forgive me to
stupid poopie fetish posting.

That is not entirely beyond the bounds of the possible. I would like
that every much. I even have a business office in... well, it's
complicated. But I'm honored. I think you're a cool guy, John, I really

It looks like the repairs to the house and satisfying the various

Get a lawyer
then get another lawyer to kick that lawyer's butt
expect someone to discover something at the very last minute which
they didn;t bother to discover during those 3 to 4 months
I know whereof I speak
