 unify and defeat... divide and crumble Group: Member Posts: 2,759 Joined: Mar 2004 Member No: 6,379 |
^^ yea...I think it would be pretty hard. Actually, to tell the truth I've never been intrested in biology or genetics, but I guess it's a smart idea, because then they could study it and create vaccinations, etc. The only downside is that it could 'escape' or get into the wrong hands. Then we'd be screwed.
