Oops. I’ve taken the film off a microwave pack of worms without waiting for it to cool with this Transmat lark. My good friend and correspondent Gouldy writes:
Another thing to bear in mind is the processing power needed to copy a person - you’d need to freeze them comletely to 0 kelvin so that their
molecules and atoms stop moving. You’d need to record the quantum states of each and every atom in their body. Is there a way of
calculating the amount of bit-states needed to do such a thing? How many atoms does a person possess? It would be interesting to find out … try to find out!
Hmmm. this could turn out to be a major undertaking…
