I think this subject matter is one of great controversy and intrigue, moreover scepticism is born out of lack of information and trust in what one believes. Introduction to anything new and change is a long process for anything and indeed it will take time for the "general" population to not only warm up to the idea but conceed and welcome a new formidable "guest". Non the less
I look towards the future and will be along for the ride... ....as long as i never have to argue with my clone and he doesent borrow the car without asking.
