Kevan Smith - Interesting

The species is very curious.  It’s easy to ‘create’ beings from silicon and plastics.  Pod’s Quantum systems with replicator, can supersede a flesh being.  One that can out-smart, out everything the carbon-based muscle-and-blood-bags.  But doesn’t make them a ‘being’.  Bonn doesn’t have a ‘friend’ and he needs one.  The physics ‘essential’ to produce a replica is easy from minerals on their planet but there is something missing.  How do you make a spirit, a character, a being?  There is something in quintessence, substance, character that alludes Mother.  There is no data on creating ‘being interesting’.  She continues to ponder this.
