Nonsense. You are NOT bound to your brain. If I make a copy of my brain into a cloned brain or electronic brain, and booted it up at the same time I shut down my original, then I would regain consciousness AS ME. Me with my new immortal brain. It would me a smooth transition. If I happen to keep the original brain "alive" at the time I booted up the new one, then there would be simply two me's who perceive themselves to be genuine.

"So you're bound to your brain. You cannot live forever unless your particular, specific, physical brain stays in tact. If I copy your brain to another cloned brain, yank yours out, and replace it with the clone, everyone else will interact with you as if you were you, no difference; but YOU would vanish into the blackness, you'd stop living, you'd die."
