I got the email for the comment and it made me laugh!
Oh good! :)

And wanted to add, your shortcut put into light the weakness of the premise of the show on this particular point.
I seem to remember Joss(?) saying at some point [in reply to a question about souls] that 'the soul means whatever we want it to mean at any particular point' (or, you know, words to that effect) which really is spectacularly unhelpful when trying to get coherent meaning out of the show(s).

Sorry about the convolutedness of this, btw.
