Thanks, Samantha. I have been taking the effort to repost my old original forum threads from KurzweilAI.net onto BYB, as it's supposed to be a journal of ideas, innovations, and inventions. (Disclaimer: When a post is none of those, it will have a parenthesis disclaimer at the end of the title.)

I have updated this post to include a link to the original. A user there named "Eldras" mentioned "Quantum Archaeology." Do you know a thing about that? That concept gives us hope that long-dead bodies can get resurrected after all.

BS. If you pull a corpse then the brain is rotted completely. Nothing to recreate the person from more substantial than the usual thing historical references. It doesn't matter what your tech is if the required information does not exist. Now, if you had time travel and could scan the brain while intact or just abduct the person just before they died you might have a chance. Claims that Singularity will do the impossible just because it is unimaginably better tech are getting really boring.
