Should the Avatar drivers totally integrate into their Avatars?

[Crickett]

I posed this question to some people in Florida.

If you were an Avatar driver, would you want to transfer your consciousness into your Avatar permanently as Jake did at the end of the movie?

The main advantage as I see it to doing this is you have the freedom and mobility to travel on Pandora without a breathing apparatus. Also, you're physically larger and stronger and you would probably be more accepted by the Na'vi.

The main disadvantage as I see it is you had two bodies and now you have one. If you don't do this and your avatar dies, then you still have your human body like Max and Norm do.

The flip side is..... you need to take care of and maintain two bodies. As we saw from Jake, that's not the easiest thing in the world to do on a full time basis.
