    When we moved to Xenfora some of the signature options didn't come over. In the old software signatures were limited by a character limit, on Xenfora there are more options and there is a character number and number of lines limit. I've set maximum number of lines to 4 and unlimited characters.

Clone Randi

Can we save Randi's DNA for later cloning?

From the perspective of pure reason, the assumption that James Randi is essentially only the result of a ridiculously small quantity of DNA information in the order of 10 megabyte is completely absurd.

James Randi as a personality, as everyone else, is primarily the product of his previous lives.

And because it is impossible to become a good magician within one life, we can be quite sure that Randi also in at least some previous lives was a successful magician having left marks.

Does anybody know magicians (or maybe debunkers of magicians) having died before or around the time of Randi’s birth with similar characteristics?

Are you making the assertion that Randi has lived more than once?

Yes... All of them... How do you think he got branded "Amazing"?
 
If not cloning how about freezing?
‘Psychics’, frauds and the assorted masses of the self-deluded would have nightmares for years with the prospect that a deep-frozen James Randi may one day be resurrected to terrorize them again.
 
How about taking his brain and inserting it into a gigantic computer that spoke with one of those 60's Sci Fi Movies type of electronic voice. We would call it, The Randi 2000
 
Randi will live on in the ideas and memes he's planted in us, won't he?

It's unlikely that a clone will have the same environment as Randi did, so it won't be the same. Deep freezing is risky, so what we need is a transporter accident like the one in that ST:TNG episode that made people younger. :D
