I've been saying this for a long time--on philosophical not scientific grounds, I suppose. It was the beautiful mind of Georg Cantor that led me to it--although I doubt my reasoning would qualify as mathematical or scientific.
Cantor "proved" that some infinities can be bigger than others.
Even if the universe is infinite, it doesn't mean that there are somewhere an indefinite number of near replications of *moi*--or anybody else. In fact, an infinite universe could contain an infinite number of planets & yet there might not be a single true duplication of anything...
