This reminds me of an old film from the 70's where a group of businessmen
developed an adavanced simulation (similar to the matrix) in order to test out
 variables that could affect the economy att he world level.

In the story an "simulated" person becomes aware his environment is not real
because he can recallprevious versions each time a variable is altered, and
also notices hgih profile people appearing and disappearing near a set of
telephones in a public area.

He picks up the handset on one of the special courtesy phones,and the operator 
asks if he's ready to leave.  He agrees and is transported to the outside
world.  He begins to question how he, a fabrication of a simulation can exist 
outside of it, then comes to the conclusion the "visitors" to his reality are
not really outside, and are part of a larger simulation themselves.
