“Incurable diseases will eventually force mankind to justify disruptive nanotech and genetic engineering.”

“Genetic engineers don't make new genes, they rearrange existing ones.”
Thomas E. Lovejoy
“So, the central question became whether we would be able to genetically manipulate one element of the pathway without disrupting its additional functions. In this regard, we thought that the life extending function of this pathway would be elusive, whereas the developmental and reproductive functions would be more amenable. We were delighted to find that Smk-1 proved to be specific for the one function we thought the most elusive.”
Andrew Dillin
“Techniques such as genetic engineering, psychoactive drugs and electronic control of the brain make possible a transformation of the species into docile, fully-obedient, 'safe' organisms.”
William Bainbridge
“Genomics, nanobiotechnology and breakthroughs in molecular biology, genetics and biological engineering have opened up a broad spectrum of opportunities and challenges for manipulating microbial and plant systems to produce novel organic compounds and to meet part of the U.S. and world energy needs. Opportunities abound for integrating these advances in engineering and science into regional, national and global efforts to develop sustainable industries and communities.”
Larry Walker
“We are driven by five genetic needs: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun.”
