In light of the memory-transfer experiments done with planaria back in 
the Sixties, I wonder if might be equally effective simply to eat the 
removed brain.  This eliminates the necessity of removing one's own 
brain in order to install the new one, as well as the attendant 
necessity of relearning non-Haskell material, such as the names of one's 
close relatives.  However, it also introduces the possibility of 
contracting Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease as a result of the brain-eating 
behavior.  This risk might be minimized by a casual questioning of the 
chosen donor prior to the brain-removal procedure--for example, "Have 
you recently experienced episodes of myoclonus, ataxia, or 
hallucination?"  Regarding preparation of the acquired brain, the 
sources I have consulted generally recommend parboiling, slicing, and 
stir-frying with chilis, ginger, and some nice spring onions.
