He's said that if science ever comes up with solid
evidence against it, it will have to be dropped.

He's also said that if a machine with all the
appropriate facilities could ever be designed and
built, then there's no reason why someone
couldn't reincarnate into it.

But it's Dalai Lama, not Dali Llama -- the latter is a
surrealist S. American ruminant kept as a beast of
burden and for its soft woolly fleece, and that
dictionary on CDROM was definately a good buy.
