Here is my theory. Your personality is merely an exact set of electric repetitions in an exact given pattern.
As time changes, so do your pathways in your brain. Electric pulses change accordingly.
The personality you have today is no longer the same as the one you had 10 years ago.
If there was a way to scan your exact neurological pathway and pulsation periodicity, I do believe your personality could be carried over and duplicated.
One would need an ability to scan billions of synapses per second to capture them, but I think it might be possible sometime in the future.

I agree 100%, and I often ask people this question:
Do you think your consciousness now is the same consciousness of your 5 year old self?

Did you actually exist half a second ago or is your entire life just a set of memories that were implanted when the entire world was created just now?

Alternatively, did you actually exist halt a second ago, or what existed was something else which memories were merged with your current sensorial input to become "you"?
It's the same old debate of questioning if it is possible to bath in the same river twice. What is the point of expecting completely non-destructive conversion from neurons to processors when the conversion from 1 second ago neurons to current neurons actually is destructive?
