I'll have you know that I was transported to the Enterprise when I was in Las Vegas at the Star Trek Experience, long before this was done.

Very clever. I'm sure we all suspected doubles but its a pity they confirmed that belief and ruined the illusion.

The first real use for this might be to make cremation by fire obsolete.

Brilliant idea Ryan! Just dissipate the atoms into nothingness.
