Yes, agreed.
However, as a down-to-the-earth person, without big expectations for
reaching true immortiality within my lifetime, I would be pretty happy
if I could write a simple program to perpetuate my will after my death:
while (true) {
pay (Bill, $100); // Bill will make sure that this
// program remains running.
pay (John, $100); // Charity.
sleep (1 month);
}
