@habfan. Thats not really creepy at all if you think of what 'you' (as in your mind) really are. Its just a state of a certain set of chemicals and electrical signals, thus destroying yourself and recreating yourself perfectly would be just as much a continuation of what you are as staying in your current body.

So if you cloned yourself via a dupe ray or say error in the telereformer... both you's would be you?

 

Yes.

 

And interestingly enough there would be no 'real' me, to both it would seem a continuous line of consciousness. Obviously from the point of cloning onwards they would diverge and be different people - but neither more 'me' than the other.
