WRITER FUEL: The Greek writer Plutarch proposed this question: If a ship's planks are replaced over time due to wear and tear until none of the original pieces remain, is it still the same ship?

At the Great British Beer Festival, watching Eddie & The Hot Rods battle against Olympia's notoriously shite acoustics. In case you were wondering, none of the people on stage here played on Do Anything You Wanna Do. #TriggersBroom #ShipOfTheseus #Sugababes

#Elmo is changing #Twitter so much that it is basically unrecognizable. Can we buy back the original 1.0 version and just remake it? #ShipOfTheseus #X #lol

@coreyspowell
Perhaps the question is misunderstood, as though identity is subject to a simple mathematical comparison. I propose that it is the same ship if the (majority of) people who use it or see it or are familiar with its behaviour agree that it is the same. Recast the question as "football team" and you'll see what I mean.
