Define life

Just wondering about /sci/'s definition of life. None of that made of cells bullcrap. Bonus points for answers which adequately handle fire, viruses, corporations, and artificial intelligence.

Best answer will recieve a box containing a simulation of a universe whose denizens are just on the verge of discovering that their world is a simulation.

discover them yourself just like I did and do. It's that skill that is most potent. :)

I'm not proud, I'm exercising my right of Free-Will. And, I don't care if you hate me or don't like me or would like to kill me. I would genuinely welcome a challenge; they're so rare nowadays with all the shallow inconsiderate cowards laying about in basements in front of computers and on couches watching day-time tv. I rather like the idea of cowards dying in shame...like the scapegoat. :P
