Right on.
I'm the blogger PZ was responding to in his post, and I specifically recommended PZ read Sandberg and Bostrom's Whole Brain Emulation: A Roadmap.
That's what PZ is claiming to have read when he writes "I read the paper he recommended," but PZ doesn't seem to have read it very carefully, in particular missing out on the sections "simulation scales" (pp. 13-14), "Body Simulation," and "Environment Simulation" (pp. 74-78). I've written a post explaining PZ's apparent confusions in greater detail at my blog.
Copy-and-paste error with the link; I think you meant to give this one.
Thanks, fix'd.
