This is an irresistable rat-hole. Sorry. :-)

I suppose the AntiChair and Chair could be in the same room at the same time. It depends on the size of the room and what forces (magnets?) can be applied to keep them far enough apart. Oh and if 150kg of matter and antimatter combined (two average sized humans), it would be important to know just how big and radioactive that Norwegian crater would be. Perhaps we could set up a Working Group to consider these issues.

IMO, this would be a much more productive use of our time than discussing process. YMMV.
