Are we becoming "Virtual"?

Question: Are we becoming "Virtual"!?

We used to leave things when we passed!. Photos, family heirlooms, homes and records of our lives!. Now the banks and credit card companies own everything!. Our records, and even family pictures, are digital!. When we pass on will we simply be "Deleted"!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Has your Y/A account ever been suspended!? One day Yahoo Answers will get old and it will all be deleted!. Along with everybody's precious "points"!. You are right!. We used to exist on paper long after death, but now we are "paperless"!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Oh you poor, poor, fool!.!.!.!. not really that was kind of mean!.

Anyway!.!.!. what do you think such virtual things are!? Are they not physical as picture frames!? Just because you do not see magnetic energy used to store information on a hard drive does that mean it does not exist!?

It is as physical as sound waves, as real as air!.

My friend we will be deleted no more than a fire can destroy a home, how time can bring a car to rust and ruin, how a wandering animal can eat a picture and digest it!.

No my friend we've simply made more space in a smaller area, such that we sometimes do not even know that such space is real, it's just smaller than it used to be!. No my friend we won't be deleted so much as we would any other way!. Of course this way may be a little easier or it may not!. In practice destroying a hard drive with pictures on it!.!.!. is that not the same as burning a picture frame with a picture inside of it!.!?
