Why is the name of the short story that involved a teleportation device that really replicated people?

Question

I'm asking this in the engineering area because the whole story focused on engineering morals and ethics. If whoever is responsible for deleting this question could PLEASE email me as to WHY you are, I would greatly appreciate it. What part of the ToS is being violated?

Anyway, back to the question: the moral of the story was "making the machine user-friendly ruined the company," or something like that. The engineers had added a LED display welcoming users into the machine but it also ended up alerting them of an error in the replication process....

Unfortunately, as usual with Yahoo Answers, no email describing why my question has been deleted twice already and even if there was one it would just be a generic "you violated the ToS" email. I'll be posting this on the Usenet. I might not receive an answer as quickly but I will at least receive an answer and the question will not be deleted by some short-sighted user.

Answer 1

"Think Like a Dinosaur" is the most obvious recent example.
It's a novelette written by James Patrick Kelly, I read it in the June '95 issue of Asimov's. It won the Hugo & the Nebula and other prizes, so I'm guessing this is the one you;re looking for.
