For sure, as I say, few people agree with Rafal and me when
one considers level 7. But much more basic are earlier levels
like

   1. Will travel by space warp, but won't permit disassembly of atoms.

   2. Will permit teleportation, but only if the same atoms are used.

For the record, what is your stance on those? And would you agree
to teleportation if different atoms at the receiving station are
used to reconstruct you?

Please answer these three questions, if you would.

Thanks,
Lee
