You bet it will be full of stars- Demis and Leonardos and Stallones- ugh, they were bad enough in the singular. Do you realize that some of the most obnoxious people on the planet will have the money to clone themselves? We won't need to worry about Hell in an afterlife- with more than one Leonardo or an army of Spice Girls we can have Hell right here.

How in the world will it be possible to duplicate the trillions of neural connections that would be necessary to exactly duplicate one's memory? We're not talking about hard drives here. Even if it were possible to duplicate my memory in a clone, which body would I "feel" that I was in? Could I "feel" my presence in 2 or more bodies at once?
