Beware of self-styled gurus. That is a good first step :-)
Perhaps you might want to read around a bit on the web, there are
quite a few good texts out there. I suggest that you take a look at
www.extropy.com and www.aleph.se/Trans/Intro, and ask here about what
you don't understand or want to hear different opinions about.

If you mean transferring or copying the contents of a mind to a
computer, then I think it is relevant here. Some of us spend far too
much time discussing it.
