Ideally, within each Homunculi World (i.e. Homunculi Paris, Homunculi Florida etc) you'd need a smaller recursive Homunculus, in which would need to be deposited another, smaller Homunculus, until it was Homunculesses all the way down. |

On the topic of <theme>lands - did you hear the news that the French are considering opening Napoleonland?! |
|

Hmm - I don't fancy the recreation of Napoleon's invasion of Russia when 90% of his army died. It's a real shame that trains to France no longer go from Waterloo station in London. Running a
Waterloo-Napoleonland service would have been excellent. |

Does it have to be only medieval theories? Could
there be a Chinese Room? |
|
|
Ah yes! Thanks, [mouseposture] - I'd forgotten about the Chinese Room argument (linked). This theme park is suddenly becoming a whole lot more intellectual. |
