Kiln People is novel written by David Brin and I can't say as though I have read it (and therefore can't recommend it), but the concept of the novel is rather interesting.
Kiln People, is about a society where you can create clay copies of yourself to do various tasks (e.g. mental tasks, dangerous tasks etc.) while you do something else. Then at the end of the day, you download their memories back into you.
So, here is a pretty deep question for this week. If you had 5 copies of yourself to use this week, what would you have them do?
Once you have completed your answer, read and respond to at least 2 peers.
As always, I can't wait to see your responses.
Mr. Boettger :-)
if i had 5 clones of my self i would use one to do my chores, do my school during the day, one to be my slave, another one to go meet relatives at family things. then for my self i would go do the fun stuff like go to the movies, go to a skate park EXT......
