How can we tell that each other exist? I can tell I exist because of those immortal words, "I think therefore I am" but this doesn't prove whether or not anyone else exists. For all I know you could all be figments of my imagination but I can't prove or disprove this so I need to believe, not know.
Any opinions?

If anothere entiety surprises you, you could not have thought them up, therefore, they exist, also.
