TRS Model 3 was smarter than Obammy... It had dual 5 1/4” floppies and no hard drive.

The boat has really been missed on this. Logic says that the idea is stupid. Just think it through a little. If you can load your mind into a machine, then you can load it into ten machines or a thousand. Which one then is you? None of them of course, when your brain is dead your are dead.

I’m not saying mankind given enough time won’t be able to find the tree of life, but it is forbidden fruit now.

What man should be able to do is to keep his body alive and healthy and interact with others through remote control. We won’t feel like we are living in a machine but that will be what it will be.

God has figured out how to do it. If we follow Him then we will be able to do the same thing. I realize that our bodies can be exactly recreated through DNA but I don’t know how our memories can be revived after death.

Definitely a lot of cool stuff to contemplate but it is all just a dream exercise.

I know my TRS80 II was smarter. God I hated that acoustical modem I used with it to connect to the university's computer. But it still beat waiting in line to get to the Digital VAX VMS card terminals.

Crap, a TRS-80 Model I with the old 500 baud cassette drive would be smarter.
