And who wouldn’t be concerned. Anything our army does, will be owned by Russia in 5 years and China 5 years after that. When it gets to Iran, it will be used.

If it's been thought of, it'll happen. Sure will be fun when they put their sick bugs on miniature drones.

Introducing new Species/Traits/DNA to the biosphere?

The only absolute guarantee is that you will never, ever, get this genie back into the bottle. Think about that, PLEASE

We have a virus going around in our county . . . a couple who took the flu shot a while back have it bad. According to their doctor, the virus can lead to thyroid problems and also red spots on the throat. Just more end times stuff to look forward to. http://patburt.com/

We will find out what could go wrong. With such things the rule is that if it can be done it will be done regardless of any laws banning it. Passing laws to prohibit these things results only in their secrecy and lack of direct utility in a court of law.

It’s been pretty clear for a long time now that scientists DO NOT watch horror flicks.
