Do you have a favored type of immortality?
Biologically the same as you are now, heighten biologically, bio-robotic, full cyborg, computer awareness, or some other choice?

The artificial red blood cell or "respirocyte" proposed here is a bloodborne spherical 1-micron diamondoid 1000-atm pressure vessel with active pumping powered by endogenous serum glucose, able to deliver 236 times more oxygen to the tissues per unit volume than natural red cells

Tous, the mind is what characterize you! In my opinion the mind is what meant to be preserved the most! what's the point of everything if your mind is being forotten?!...but never the mind. In my opinion you cant replace the mind without killing the person who was...If your concious were copied to a computer would it really be you or a copy of you?

I wonder if Kurzweil has given his attention instead to the restoration of a person's self, instead of seeking to extend biological life indefinitely; because it would be more feasible to be able to come back to life, more appropriately for my purpose here, come back to existence, again and again than to be living indefinitely.The inventor and computer scientist [Kurzweil] is serious about his health because if it fails him he might not live long enough to see humanity achieve immortality, a seismic development he predicts in his new book is no more than 20 years away.

Maybe, but who said you wanna re-create? I mean you simply wanna have a copy, which is like you in the first moment (after the process completion you are changing and so you copy), you don't have to destroy yourself for letting your copy exist! like you don't have to throw away a spoon to buy a new one which is the same spoon (almost).You have to destroy the object and then re-create in a different part of the room
