The clone would not know he was a clone. He would think he was you.
No. No he wouldn't. Please read carefully when you debate:
Moreover, the procedure allows every memory and learned behavor/skill/whatever that is in your brain to be copied to the clone's brain. IE, the clone will behave exactly as you would behave
.

The op clearly states the clone has every memory of mine including the decision to create a clone. If I know that I have a disease, know that I had decided to create a clone, and know that I no longer have the disease then I can deduce that I am the clone.

There is no such thing as brain transplantation.
Presumably, there are other organs that can be harvested. Granted, I'm changing the context a bit, but this is volconvo and people have been doing that for years.
