Huh? No, no, I can't get cancer. No one gets cancer anymore, unless it's in a lab for experiments, but I'm not that type.

Fascinating.

Vanishingly low incidence in total-conversion cyborgs because of the lifestyle modifications.

And if I did develop brain cancer, I'd have my ghost dubbed onto a new brain.

I guess that would work. It just sounds easier to cure cancer, though.

I'm sure it'll be fixed soon, Matokokusanagi!

[Empathy is not Motokokusanagi's strong point, B.]

Have you given any thought to the buoyancy problem?
