Digital teleportation is not necessary, with existing technology I can make a real experiment, not just a thought experiment, that incorporates all the philosophical implications, such as they are, as your hi-tech version. In Helsinki I put you into a soundproof box, I then flip a fair coin and put you and the box on a jet headed to either Washington of Moscow. Several hours later you push a button, the box opens and you find out what city your eyes are receiving signals from. Do you find anything about this surprising or philosophically interesting?

Expectations have NOTHING to do with a feeling of self, and that's what we're talking about.
