What?
The previous sentence was: "Except that we can make mechanical hearts and you stay the same person on receiving one." The first of these two statements is obviously false, and the second is false in the absence of that detailed brain-machine synch referred to elsewhere, which we don't have.
Are you claiming that the following sentence is obviously false?
Because it strikes me as obviously true.
It seems likely to me that he means "we can make mechanical brains" is false.
Haven't we had mechanical hearts since 1982?
By "mechanical brain" I was trying to indicate something much simpler than an AI.
You have maybe. I've had a biological heart since 1982 (in January).

Oh it's mechanical alright. Newtonian, really.
