Should Cloning Be Ban Or Not?

Isn't it rich?
Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground,
You in mid-air.
Send in the clowns.

Isn't it bliss?
Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around,
One who can't move.
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns.

Just when I'd stopped opening doors,
Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours,
Making my entrance again with my usual flair,
Sure of my lines,
No one is there.

Don't you love farce?
My fault I fear.
I thought that you'd want what I want.
Sorry, my dear.
But where are the clowns?
Quick, send in the clowns.
Don't bother, they're here.

Isn't it rich?
Isn't it queer,
Losing my timing this late
In my career?
And where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns.
Well, maybe next year.

Cheers JP, I believe that Krusty the clown sang that in an episode of the Simpsons...though I doubt that was the original version. :lol:

If memory serves Sideshow Mel walked onto the stage at the end signing "They're already here" or somesuch. Or perhaps "Don't bother they're here". Stop hassling me about it ffs.

It occurs to me that people often cite mad scientists cloning Hitler (tricky, I believe, as I think the Russians cremated him) as a reason to ban cloning.

However, what about a less mad scientist cloning lots of Helen of Troys (no I haven't seen it - poor Homer, Doh!) or Cleopatras or Nefertitis - I think you can see where I am going with this. :)

I think The Boys from Brazil proves beyond any reasonable doubt that environmental conditioning would also be a factor.

This is definitely true, because of science.

Absolutely agree that environmental factors are an essential element. Hitler's father's obsession with uniforms and beating young Hitler clearly had some effect on his son's outlook later in life. A Hitler clone raised by a Ozzy Osbourne type figure might be altogether different.

However, environmental factors (expect perhaps extreme poverty) would have little impact on my strategy to flood the world with eye candy - all in the interests of science of course. :o

I do believe that one of Hitler's testicles does in fact reside at the Albert Hall... :ph34r:

And Goebbels apparently had none.

Maybe we should clone them both to settle it once and for all.. :o
