Proposal!Biologists and Electrical Engineers create gut bacteria that
duplicates all information in the human brain, all brain states, memories,
personality traits, habits, etc.

Quick question -- wouldn't you literally lose your bio-engineered microbiotic
2nd mind when you take penicillin?
Disadvantage- If you got an upset stomach you could crap your brains out,
literally. The rebuild might take a while, and during that time, the individual
is "uninsured."

Interesting evidence that not only do animals rely on symbiotic microbiota for

Nice.Yes bacteria are quite useful, and too much hygiene can be bad by hurting
our micro-allies.I read that the average human has ten kilogram of bacteria,
and would die if they were not there. There are 20 times more bacteria cells
than human cells in a human. A human cells is very plausibly a descendent of a
colony of bacteria (with the nucleus being perhaps a descendent of a virus).
No life (form) is an island!
Nor is a number among the numbers ... :)
