DARPA wants to repair brain damage with circuits. This implies we might one 
 day repair some damage from Alzheimer's etc. Perhaps we need only preserve 
the  part of the brain with memories and personality, and let them replace 
circuitry  for stimulation, waking, memory formation etc. with non-unique 
generic  circuits.
