I do to. If its all data why can't some be thrown out to compress the file(s) size without damaging the consciousness? Which brings up the question of how much data can be discarded before it changes the emotional or personality DNA of the consciousness. Then I wonder how much of our personality is in the data and how much of it is in our corporeal body, which we would lose by uploading our mind.
