Similar, not the same, 
not in the space-time continuum,
as they are not stored in the same place,
so there pointer values are different,
nor do they live the same stretch of time.

Consider "identical" in:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identical_particles>

.. and consider the illusion of reality 
as seen from inside those closures
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis>

.., so perhaps such closure views relate conceptually to déjà-vu?
