Matrix Medicine

We found a bottle of red pills. Some people believe that we are all living in a version of the Matrix or a giant computer simulation that generates the contemporary world around us. Imagine that the life of the mind finally won (though not how we initially imagined!).

• What is the best test you could derive for proving that we are or are not in the matrix?
• And then, if you proved that we are in the matrix, what would you try to do to get yourself and your teammates out (or why would you choose to stay)?

Submit responses to both questions. The best response to each question receives bonus points.
