Dear Eugene,
I don't have an impression that your brain is deteriorating. Quite the
opposite.
As for the cloning I would not really like that. I am more for an
instant transporter (Beam) - so one can be quickly in all the places
almost at the same time.
And also, I really like the idea of diversity and building a connecting
language which can seamlessly bring together diverse perspectives.

Ana (without a break, :-( )
