    Hmm I wonder if one could get pregnant on the holodeck. And could you then just pause it and continue another day? And would the computer read and write biological or holographic information?

    How would that work?

      Half of the DNA a hologram (on an atomic-precise/indistinguishable scale?), half regular Riker DNA?

      I guess the pause could work if all other stuff of this poor sob would have been holographic too (except for some DNA degradation/need for shielding while paused).

      Also could the pregnant Riker still do his little chair manoeuvre?
