You know, in his book, Saucer Wisdom, Rudy Rucker had one of his characters
indicate that "aliens are raining down on us all the time. We just don't have
the tech yet to unzip them yet." Rucker had copies (clones) of beings or tour
groups visiting other worlds, including earth and having the capability to
unarchive themselves, usually as inhabitants of UFO's. The book was written
with tongue in cheek, but was basically a mechanism to explore Rucker's ideas
on future technology. Much of the tech was vividly described, but unlikely as
an actual development. Your post triggered a remembrance of this. :-)
