  In what has become a standard eternal inflation picture of the string
landscape there are many problematic consequences and a difficulty defining
probabilities for the occurrence of each type of universe. One feature in
particular that might be philosophically disconcerting is the infinite cloning
of each individual and each civilization in infinite numbers of separated
regions of the multiverse. Even if this is not ruled out due to causal
separation one should ask whether the infinite cloning is a universal
prediction of string landscape models or whether there are scenarios in which
it is avoided. If a viable alternative cosmology can be constructed one might
search for predictions that might allow one to discriminate experimentally
between the models. We present one such scenario although, in doing so, we are
forced to give up several popular presuppositions including the absence of a
preferred frame and the homogeneity of matter in the universe. The model also
has several ancillary advantages. We also consider the future lifetime of the
current universe before becoming a light trapping region.
