Bruno: I looked at UDA via the SANE paper. I am not certain the the mind is Turing emulatable, but will move onward. Using Star Trek transporter concepts, I can accept steps 1 through 5. Step 6 takes only the mind and sends it to a finite computational device or the entire person into a device similar to a Holodeck, where the person is a Holocharacter? I am not certain a UD is physically possible in a finite resource Universe. Ronald
