Off Topic » in reply to Reincarnation Redux (originally from Mysteries of the Multiverse)

On that site David Cummings asks: What is the mechanism?

1. I'm not interested in arguing on that site, so I'll give my explanation here.

2. I recently purchased a new computer, the new computer can communicate with the old computer that is not doing what it is supposed to do anymore. I can take the information from the old computer and transfer it to the new one without using wires. In fact, I can load the memory info into a cloud system and retrieve it later into the new computer.

What is a computer memory? How is it different from a human memory?

3. If computer memories are somewhat similar in structure to human memories, then why would it be impossible to transfer human memories to another biological machine?
