Reisler) Organization: Hadron, Inc., Fairfax, VA Lines: 13 Along the same line, there was a story that appeared in _OMNI_ several years ago. It involved a time in the "future" when the Soviets had taken over the US, in a non-violent coup. They were punishing one of the Democratic Revolutionaries by repeatedly killing him, while transferring his "personality" and memories to a clone, up to the moment of death. The metods of execution that were used were chosen for the psychological horror, such as being fed slowly into an incinerator, feet first. Each clone remembered the previous "original's" death, and was usually forced to go clean it up and bury it. All this, just to change a persons way of thinking? I have forgotten what the point of all this was. Oh well. Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
