Good thought. We could also have Jurrassic park for real [img]smile.gif[/img] Although more controlled of course
And the way I see it, if this technology goes into the general public domain then all the rich people will be making clones of themselves and have a brain transplant into the younger cloned body or something, effectively their bodies living forever and their brains always learning more!
