The Beauty and the Beast

What is the world coming up to? Just when harvesting corn or rice wasn't enought, we may soon have acres of "fertile land" to cultivate livers, kidneys, and the likes. For those who read the linked page properly, you noticed that date of the article was in the future. However, stuff like this could very well be possible.

With all the stem cell research and the advances in technology and medical science, one day we may have our organs grown in our own gardens. Having heart problems? No worries. Replace your old heart with a new one. Or better yet, take a page of Nokia's marketing book. Trade your old heart for a new one and pay the diference only.

Another interesting though while we are at it. All the movies we see about mutants may soon be reality. You know, something is bound to go wrong somewhere. You just can't play God and get away with it.
