Do you have any reason for thinking this hasn't already happened and
is there any reason to be upset if it had? If you were copied and
murdered last night would you feel one bit different today? What
exactly do you mean by "The Original" anyway, all your atoms are in
a constant state of flux, you really aren't the man you were a year ago.
