It seems a reasonable hypothesis, doesn't it? I am prepared to admit 
that you *probably* exist even when I have no current perceptions of 
your actions or effects.

Although who knows, maybe you will claim that you exist only at those 
moments that I happen to perceive you...

Maybe you will claim that none of us existed until 3:15 PM EST on 
November 3, 1999, and that we were created with the memories of our 
previous existence...
