It's entirely a matter of definition. One could
say, for instance, that the ship is a bunch of
things including molecules that are designed to
be replaced bit-by-bit. So it *is* a ship.
One could also say that a ship is not a ship once
it's permanently docked on display. Not a ship.Now. If we could only figure out whether taking
Nardil is really cheating ..
