Hi John and Flash:

Any way you guys want to do this is OK with me, and since Flash has offered to pay the fee there should be no problem. Disclaimer: If I am successfully cloned in the future, and should the clone be genetically identical to me (unlikely, since genes are not the only carriers of inherited traits – cellular inclusions like mitochondria also affect development) the new Chic will still not be the same as the old one. Today we don’t understand consciousness, but I doubt that Chic #2 will see and feel the world through my eyes like I do. I think #2 will be somewhat similar, but ultimately quite different. But, what the hell, I’m willing. Who knows?
