Potentially, it has only one corridor to walk down, and it's safe all the way (clones are so pathetic mentally that you could infuse them with an identity, such as a name and memories and such, and they'd never be able to wake from their brain-dead state). You know they lack the basic capability to hear and thus understand? There's no way you could ever get one to behave like they do in the movies. It's impossible and just makes for good writing material.

Nothing at all to worry about.
So whats the deal with identical twins then? They are in effect naturally occuring clones. I've known a few and they had all of their faculties intact. :hmm:
