Subject: Immorbid

A story that first appeared in Analog of June 2005--The Policeman's  

Daughter, by Wil McCarthy--uses the word "immorbid" instead of "immortal,"  
meaning no 
natural death. Not bad. It is also available in an anthology, Science  
Fiction The Best of the Year 2006, ed. Rich Horton, Prime publishers.
 
The story, incidentally, concerns a future where people travel by fax  

machine, and can also be multiplicated or backed up the same way, and of course
fax 
machines can print out just about anything you want. The story involves  
legal and psychological complications of multiple instantiations  scenarios.
