Cloned monkey embryos are a "gallery of horrors"

<Dr Frankenstein cackle> Ah ha ha ha </Dr Frankenstein cackle>
Ya see, that is a fundamental difference between me and mainstream
extropianism: I say it's OK to go all Frankenstein with respect to genetic
engineering--because GE deals with making biological bodies, and in order to
be immortal, bodies are important...VERY important.
OTOH, Extropianism says it's OK to go all Frankenstein with respect to
immigration. Why is that, I ask? Oh, I see, because in order to be
immortal, we need cheaper busboys, dishwashers and house construction crews,
etc. Uh huh...
Face it, Extropianism is a memeset created by and for the GreedHeads in
Commerce and the Empire Builders in Govt....actually, it is FOR those who
are farmed/ranched by the GreedHeads....
