Re: Gould or not?

You might try not taking your science fiction quite so literally. The alternate reality of science fiction is often presented as a mirror. The question posed by science fiction is not so much whether the soul can be transmitted into an actual robot, but rather what survives of the soul in an increasingly dehumanized society in which people become more like robots-- and there are fewer and fewer Goulds among us. The Disklavier, with its familiar analog exterior, is a comforting palliative on this slippery slope. It belongs in the home alongside a Sony Aibo dog. I'll pass.
