PHONE-IN

Wilson has decided that Wonderful Radio W is an ideal place to try out his multiple-choice questions before he submits them to The Chase — 'ideal' because his audience is probably a lot brighter than I am. 

He's going to read out one question every day, and listeners can phone in with the answers.

Today's question is: 'How do you know you exist?

     A: It's obvious — you think, therefore you are. What a stupid question;
     B: You don't exist, you are in simulation — a computer game, probably a lot like 'Lemmings';
     C: You can probably never know.

I think I know how far he's got in the New Scientist 'Metaphysics Special Edition' — I hope these deep questions don't trouble him so much that they spoil his Xmas.

On the plus side, though, there's been no sign of him recording his cover version of Slade's Happy Xmas Everybody...
