Not that it *really* matters, it's all just a snowballing volume of fantasy that's been deliberately chipped away at, added to, and manipulated through the last 6000 years or so.
Robot Chicken clips are really useful for filling in the gaps...

USians is just not catching on.
Can we just be NANCs, rhymes with yanks,
and acronym's for North American Non-Canadian?
It would need to be NANCOM for North American Non-Canadian Or Mexican. Of course, for Mexican citizens living in the USA it would have to be NANCCRM for North American Non-Canadian Currently Relocated Mexican...
Also, he's the only guy that:
a. does the liberal/liberation spin that IS silicon valley
b. actually talks about tech like DRONES, along with BEARS.
c. has writers that are very, very tech savvy, much like the Simpsons and Futurama
d. Michael Stipe and Patrick Steward as continuing guests. That is

Ugh - get it right. They are holding it wrong...
Ok, Stop fiddling around!
But it will turn us into thrrrrice-breasted mutants.
So... we're gonna need a bigger motorboat?
Dude, what happened to your face?
Nipple based dermabrasion!
As a counterpoint to this argument, consider the X-Planes of the 50's and 60's; these were all done precisely that way: by attracting the best and brightest to remote locations, cut off from population centers and given a remit to do the best they could. Think the Bell-X1, for example, or Lookheed's A-12 (which became the SR-71).
Many of the people involved were in the military and had no say in where they were posted. Qualified employees of military hardware contractors would also be hard pressed to refuse a job on a top secret project... and if they did it's a small pool of people and word gets around if you are not a team player. If you are a bad fit at Lockheed then GD, Hughes, Northrop, Raytheon, et al., would also question your viability. In the end I doubt many people had to be "attracted", they were just sent.
Jesus, does no one even read the summary? The drug isn't nicotine -- it's a genetically-engineered monoclonal antibody produced by the tobacco.
So... This wasn't just a Lucky Strike?
One slice of rat tart without so much rat in it...
Well, we have spam spam spam spam spam rat tart spam eggs and spam, that not got as much rat in it!
All yeast dies off from alcohol at some level. If this is a serious commercial adjustment to the organism then I would be working on increasing alcohol tolerance.
I would be wanting to make it make a biofuel better than alcohol. If you're gonna think about gene-tampering, think big.
What if they could make a beer that was so strong it caused you to think you were going somewhere when you were just sitting in your living room? That could save a bunch of carbon.... wait, how much carbon in a beer belch? Munroe!!!
I don't call cross-breeding spider DNA with corn DNA "normal".
What do you have against web slinging crime fighting corn?
Spider Corn, Spider Corn!
Eat this stuff and your guts you'll mourn!
