Ja. Those reptilian thought processes are among my favorite
ones. {8^D The reptiles have all the fun. I think Ill go slither

Kidding aside, if we upload, it will indeed be difficult to separate
out those thoughts which are no longer necessary, those which
are inappropriate, those which we want to keep even if useless,
those which are just plain fun. I dont wanna give up being able
to fall in love, even if I *know* in my mammalian uploaded
brain that it is no longer necessary. {8-] spike
