alternative teleport methods.

Bervgenelau, the hesitant one, the one with the metallic beard and the eyes that cut rhodium like butter asked "how does this teleport system work?" Galvirrahue, the respectful one with the orange hair and three ears sparkled "it disassembles the molecules and atoms and then reassembles them at the remote location".

Bervgenelau, the cautious one with the metal fork and the knitted squid scarf said "then we cannot use it. I suppose it thinks equivalent isotopes can be swapped as long as the resultant quantum state matches the initial one during the dematerialization?" Galvirrahue, the one with the tired nose, respondeth: "well, yes, it doesn't care... why can't we use it?"

Bervgenelau, the harried sunstumbler, the one with the aging neck and he who falsely misrepresented a skin disease for a noble purpose, replied "because everything here is quark-tagged. And the postbiologicals that we are carrying, the Ichiuthya, have quantum foam bodies which are at a much higher resolution than mere baryonic matter. Your matter pattern compositers will barf on them."

Galvirrahue, he who toasted bread on the pale moonlight, replied "what do you have in mind?"

Bervgenelau, the indigo carrier of the astral chalice, responded: "An alternate teleport system I know of, that I can implement here without much fuss, involves complicated changes of local projective space, overlapping three NST-frames, the current one, the target one, and a temporary one. We can't overlap the remote and local NST-frames in one go, because the turbidity would be unsatisfactorily high, but if we make a temporary NST-frame, we can shift the materials and postbiologicals from one to the other and the other to the target (or vice-versa) without mishap. "

Galvirrahue, insulter of asteroids, said: "what is an NST-frame?"

Bervgenelau, the second filament of toast not digested by the Celery Deity, said "um,..."
