Building a human being of your own design in your garage?

Creating a really good tasting stream of Ebola?

Cloning your dog?

Augh, I had a long reply typed up and accidentally hit back....

So here's some of my hobbies:
Reading
Crossword puzzles/word games
Sudoku puzzles
Occasional partying
Researching historical figures/events (mainly on Wikipedia :p)
Allforums, of course
Researching politics, political systems & ideologies of the past and present

My newest field of interest is physical anthropology and the study of human evolution. I also like other anthropological subtopics, like linguistic anthropology...

do you think that the evolution of tools and design was majorly influenced by the shift from being mainly vegetarians to scavenger/hunters? not based on "intelligence" , but rather needs.

not into cloning. the basis of twins takes care of that.
building a human being. covered by having 2 kids. design can't be replicated. personality traits influenced by stress, history, and DNA makes it impossible to make it "perfect".
i'll let the evolution of africa, population density, and such take care of the ebola thing. if it does spread to more of a killer, gets on a plane and makes it to a place that has never been exposed to the humans there will see if it does turn killer.

That's an interesting theory, although I think a combination of factors is more likely to be accurate.

Mock Trial & Moot Court (more legal forms of a debate team, but my school doesn't have a debate team)
Trying to sign up for an intern spot at my local prosecutor's office.

That sounds cool. I just started an intern at the Smithsonian National Postal Museum.

see counter intelligence study and the ongoing destruction of civilization.
can reach an awful lot of people that way. and i just like to "talk" to people in general.

words can change the world.

post them in strategic places, and let them take root.

you decide your own level of involvement.

Smoking salvia and rolling around on the floor, laughing like a goon.
