- What to bring: Your wits. What else is required? You can't bring physical
- objects if you are just a representation of data. Or are you assuming that you
- will have sensory perception as in the reality? In that case, are the "physical
- objects" you bring just there as interface tools, i.e. like icons which you
- would use to execute commands?
