Clones that are born with the same DNA would not be the same person at the very least because they are born into a different context (i.e. hitler born today would unlikely be able to lead germany into genocide and world war). Also their life experiences will be completely different no matter what you do (GW Bush did not grow up with the internet, his clone would have to.....unless he lives in a jungle which would also alter the adult version of GW #2).

The issue is really whether one should be able to pre-select the DNA of their children.

I'm happy this happened. When this story was earlier on /. I was asking where are the police in all of this.....threats of sexual assault and "I'm watching you" accompanied by photos of one's house are quite disturbing.

I think this is a pretty cool feature, allowing you to purchase a book or item based on seeing it on something you are reading (seems like most of them are the ISBN's in the sources).

I am however against the commercialization aspect of Wikipedia (especially since, like others have said, I doubt Wikipedia makes any money off of this due to its open nature).

Why not just create an add-on that does this across all web pages, similar to how skype lets you call any phone number on a web page, or g-mail identifies emails that are about shipments and posts a link to the tracking (though these are not themselves add-ons). If you could even further specify what types of things you are interested in getting info on (i.e. only books) it would be much less intrusive and subversive and less likely to turn away people.

Though maybe enough people wont care and this will be really profitable for amazon, even though they are shoving it down people's throats

No, I just don't consider this person to be a scientist, which is why I characterize his experimental method as such

depends on the order you stack the pieces

He did claim to find another element (122) in gold previously. So probably just assumed every element could be found in a piece of gold

Only if I'm feeling spry

Ya, the worst is if something crashes/f**ks up midway through a hulu video. you have to rewatch ads and then usually watch more ads to skip to where you were.

Ya, I think I saw those ass-shots on wikileaks

come on, *serious* gamers don't have friends over
