If my personality and mind can be ported into a computer, then that's just a copy. The real me is left behind. It's creating another and as soon as that copy is made, that other is going to be different because he's going to go off onto his own path. I wouldn't be able to experience what he is experiencing, because I'm still here in this body. But he would think he's been ported from me into him. So it's kind of like having a kid. Giving life to someone else. But there's a very clear divide. I'm still me, and that's him.
