Hi everybody--i recently read a novel by Poul Anderson wherein the protagonist "uploads" everything he is into a supercomputer.
The "upload" had the same capabilities, emotions, talents, etc
as the original man but went on imperishably through the cosmos.
Why is it that I fear JV's death undoubtedly more than he does? Only partly so I'll read the next 2 Ports of Call novels if he lives to write them. Maybe there's a supercomputer we can load JV up to. Anybody know?
