Define clone. If you could provide a numerical range for each trait and a total number of traits, I could do the math for you =P

Well imagine there's a world with just 1 person in it.

Just 1.

And this person is you.

And you want some best friends to play with because you're bored and lonely.

There's two options available to you...

a) clone yourself so everybody looks, dresses, and acts identical to you.

or

b) subdivide yourself and give every subdivision of yourself a unique look and name to go with their unique piece of you. The closer you are to your subdivions the happier you all are and the further away you are the sadder you all are. When you're subdivions are happy you're happy when you're subdivions are sad you're sad and vice versa. This option also has technology that allows everybody to change the way they look and in this world you're the king and everybody knows it and is happy it's you.

Which would you choose out of the two optioons and how many of each clones/subdivisions could/would you make?
