we'll never be able to prove... an alternative?

the whole concept of our linearity as a living being is simply impossible to prove, and i suppose a disappointing limit.
the concept of teleportation of actual particles is an extremely difficult concept to consider. the method described here is simply deconstruction and reconstruction. you become disassembled into data, transferred, and reconstructed. however, it is my opinion that while an exact reconstruction, your linearity is interrupted.
why? say you store this data, and 60 years later you die from old age and say in your will for someone to simply reconstruct you from your backup tape sitting in the safe deposit box... obviously it's a matter of opinion, but the reconstruction of your consciousness just isn't possible because the original can continue to exist/be destroyed along with the reconstruction thus branching the linearity of consciousness.
How about this >> i'm obviously no expert, but how about through incredibly detailed analysis, we construct an antimatter field that is the exact opposite of your matter based state, then transfer the energy from the reaction, and somehow... oh nevermind, my mind just exploded.
i say just take the bus.
