[ Pause. ]

There are records of such things happening in Starfleet history. Kirk's-- [ He stops dead, his brain having worked too fast, but not catching up with conflicting programming until he's already started. It's a lot to process. Still, he cuts himself off before talking about incidents that had occurred during Kirk's five year missions; those things might yet happen. ] I have myself experienced the opposite. A very prominent doctor had developed a process by which to record his own memory engrams into an artificial intelligence--an intelligence he transferred into my own matrices so that he could not die. His attempt was thwarted. The opposite should, theoretically, also be possible, by the same method you propose.

That does not, however, explain where a suitable body might be procured, though the possibilities are understandably grim.
