Conspiracy theory nuttersI keep getting collared by a bloke who says that the war in Afghanistan is a cover for our Illuminati Freemason Shapeshifting Lizard masters to corner the market in mind-bending drugs. "It's true," he says, "I heard it on TalkSport". Tell us your stories of encounters with tinfoil hatters.
Thanks to Davros' Granddad

Assuming that it is possible for a society to survive long enough to produce such a simulation (and that, once one is produced, others can be made), it is more likely that we are inside one than that we are in the original universe.
However when you start looking at odds for things like this, it also becomes rather likely that your conciousness with all your memories etc only in fact exists for a tiny fraction of a second due to the vacuum fluctuations allowed by the uncertainty principle (the Boltzmann Brain paradox)
