Bob, perhaps I missed it, but I have not seen any reply from you on
the concept of a completely reversible uploading process.

I can't see any reason it should be more difficult to transfer one
direction than the other.

So you could upload and while in the uploaded state store experience
in your inactive/cold biological brain.

The uploaded brain could warm up the biological brain and seamlessly
transfer function till it was all back in the biological brain.

Comments?
