With technological development heading into the extremes, a new bill has proposed that commerical human and pet cloning become legal, as soon as the process is perfected.

Options and Suggestions

"It has become science-fiction no more," declares internationally-acclaimed cloning specialist Fredrick Normand, "and, if one day we manage to perfect the process, it will most definately become a reality! All we need is some government funding... besides, this is the sort of business that takes off within DAYS; the government won't be at financial loss for long!"

"No, no, and no!", yells Aaron DuBois, leader of the 'Last Bit of Decency in the Modern World' (LBDMW) group. "Don't get me wrong, I'd love to bring back old Sparky, but this has gone too far! As a matter of fact, it's absolute madness! This is the stuff the Devil makes nightmares out of, and you're trying to bring it into MY nation? I think not! I think that all forms of cloning be banned!"

Darold Glupnigus, 'philosipher by trade' and all-around wise guy steps up to the microphone at an unrelated governmental assembly and states, "Commercial cloning might seem scary to some people at first, but it really shouldn't be; I suggest that we limit every person and pet to one clone and host a dramatic screening process for everyone who applies for the service."

After privately interviewing Seline Yelvaats, well-known public speaker and talk-show regular, she suggested that only commercial cloning be banned, and not cloning reasearch. She believes that we should all trust researchers not to go farther than trying to restore that busted kidney without a doner. If there should be an entire clone created, citizens should have the full athority to eliminate them by the method of their choosing. ( :sniper: )

Gramps and Sonny discuss the issue-issue amoungst themselves:

"'Ye gads, Sonny! That's the stupidest issue I've ever heard!"

-I don't care, Gramps! I think that it's a COOL issue!"

"Ohh, you kids these days... going on about useless muck! Oh, if I were younger, I'd have showed you some REAL issues!"

-Yeah, right, Gramps. But, that's besides the point: I think that this would be quite an interesting issue to raise for the good people who play NS. Besides, it might actually happen someday!"

"Dagnabbit!"
