Science and Technology Marching Forward

DARPA wants to create their very own immortal bio-creations. No word yet on what form these might take, although punk hair-dos and eye shadow applied with a paint roller come to mind.

Think ahead, though, to next Christmas, when the technology gets to the point that you can start your own offspring into a career in science with the Make-A-Man(tm) toy. consists of vials containing:

• A is for adenine
• G is for guanine
• C is for cytosine
• T is for thymine

Several test tubes, and a re-painted E-Z Bake oven.

Remember how quickly the kids took to computers? Remember how quickly they became the only ones in your house who could de-bug your cell phone?

What could go wrong?
