I don't like your all-too-sure-of-yourself attitude. Who knows? Maybe someone will disprove Einstein. After all, it's never safe in science to worship anything. All I'm saying is, it's safer to say something's possible than that it's impossible. If you spend your life working on something that's impossible, you will be outcast, or, worse, killed like those heretics who thought the world might be round of all things. On the other hand, if you spend your life working on something that's possible and just never achieve it, you can still be considered respectable if also a bit wacky. I say, in the interest of all remotely possible progress, that we assume everything to be possible, eventually. Thought reading through advanced neuronal interfaces or otherwise, or even time travel, can only be said to be extremely improbable until we find a way of becoming omniscient. And then who needs microcircuitry?
