The ship of Theseus

Maybe OT maybe not, but it is interesting to follow the debate following the fire with the Cutty Sark, as to how much you can replace and it still be the same thing.



An argument familiar to many of us I would think, when my chassis is a mass of welding repairs, I have a replacement engine, bits of bodywork etc etc. but it still looks like the same old wreck it was.

I like the bit about any of us most likely not being more than 10 years old ;-)
