Deep Copy in C#

Question

MSDN gives this example of a deep copy (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.object.memberwiseclone.aspx)

public class Person 
{
    public int Age;

Other alternative as object extension is the next:

public static class ObjectExtension
{
        public static T Copy(this T lObjSource)
        {
            T lObjCopy = (T)Activator.CreateInstance(typeof(T));

            foreach (PropertyInfo lObjCopyProperty in lObjCopy.GetType().GetProperties())
            {
                lObjCopyProperty.SetValue
                (
                    lObjCopy,
                    lObjSource.GetType().GetProperties().Where(x => x.Name == lObjCopyProperty.Name).FirstOrDefault().GetValue(lObjSource)
                );
            }

            return lObjCopy;
        }
}

For use:

User lObjUserCopy = lObjUser.Copy();
