Brent, one of the reasons I will likely go in for cryonics is in the vague
hope that uploading eventually works, and if it does, I can someday find out
what it feels like to be you.  When I am done with that, I want to resume
being me.  I think that would be a really effing cool experience.

And after that, I want to find out what it feels like to be a woman.  When I
find out how women see this world, it may  explain a lot of things which
have baffled me utterly my entire life.  But afterwards, I damn sure want to
return to being me, and somehow carry the knowledge back with me.  I have a
theory that such an experience would make me a better man.
