Gotta Birth Back in Time
So then there’s this:
So what woman would want to give birth to a Neanderthal baby?
Yet this incredible scenario is the plan of one of the world’s leading geneticists, who is seeking a volunteer to help bring man’s long-extinct close relative back to life.
Professor George Church of Harvard Medical School believes he can reconstruct Neanderthal DNA and resurrect the species which became extinct 33,000 years ago.
His scheme is reminiscent of Jurassic Park but, while in the film dinosaurs were created in a laboratory, Professor Church’s ambitious plan requires a human volunteer.
He said his analysis of Neanderthal genetic code using samples from bones is complete enough to reconstruct their DNA.
He said: ‘Now I need an adventurous female human.
Ladies?
That would be AAWWWWESOOOME!!!!
I VOLUNTEER BOTH OF MY EX-WIVES!
I hate to say it, but I’ll bet he finds a volunteer.
“This confuses and frightens me.”
Look, it’s either this or something about those GEICO ads. Otherwise I got nothin’.
This is *waay* too close to ‘Brave New World.’

They’re extinct for a reason.
Besides, aren’t we Conservatives considered Neanderthals, today?
I’m sure there are plenty of political groupies out there who would jump at (on?) the chance.
Shouldn’t they try the elephant/wooly mammoth experiment first to test the unintended consequences?
Brave New World indeed.
Great. A new, very expensive way to create yet another “low information voter.” I thought we had enough of those?
