RE: Escaping The Matrix - Should We Even Care?
I have thought about it and in the end I decided it doesn't really matter. Our brain is evolved in order to present as stimulus from our enviroment in a specific way. Wherever those stimulus are coming from it doesn't really change the reality of our experience..It isn't guaranteed our sensory systems are that good anyway..Even if we live in reality chances are we are missing a big part of it anyway.
Very true; however it is a fun mental exercise. Also imagine if one day we can prove it conclusively, one way or another? That will be very interesting indeed :-)

It would be a tremendous step for humanity..though I guess it won't be as exciting as we imagine it because the progress in science is made in baby steps and it kind of ruins the thrill :P
