> Any sane person and even most varieties of the insane person realize that the signal you're receiving is a means to infer that something is happening out there, not an end in itself. You don't actually know what is happening out there cause you can't experience out there directly, only through you senses which are always deceiving to some degree. People love watching movies/reading books/having a drink just to receive a signal not to infer what is happening there. Otherwise they will watch just news, but no fiction would exist.
