I think we're further along than we'd like to admit.

Have not had a chance to watch but this topic maybe related. Growing circles of thought are suggesting the possibility of downloading your brain. Imagine for a moment two of the same consciences existing at once. Imagine working on your webmastering abilities from inside your P.C.

When the body dies the possibilities of the conscience thriving in a virtual world. Or reverse engineer it and have it go the opposite. Knowledge downloaded to your mind in m/s.

Bizarre stuff maybe but is slowly becoming reality. CNN back in 2005 had this to say,

London, England -- By the middle of the 21st century it will be possible to download your brain to a supercomputer, according to a leading thinker on the future.
Ian Pearson, head of British Telecom's futurology unit, told the UK's Observer newspaper that the rapid advances in computing power would make cyber-immortality a reality within 50 years.
Pearson said the launch last week of Sony's PlayStation 3, a machine 35 times more powerful than the model it replaced, was a sign of things to come.

I think we are closer to reaching this goal in our lifetime.

Okay this is to bizarre!

I think this won't be impossible since Google's campaign for people labeled as idiot, for the matter that they can't even Google it first before asking, is becoming phenomenal in the net.
