I really love reading "A Little Death In Dixie" by Lisa Turner on my new Kindle. This newly remodeled reader is more wafer-thin, lighter, quicker, and makes studying easier than with any older Kindle model. Weighing in at but 8.5 ounces, the sleeky configured electronic e-reader is lighter than a paperback,softback,soft-cover book. It's merely 1/3” thick and feels wonderful in the hand. This novel model is the flattest Kindle notwithstanding.

I hope you do see where this could lead. Suppose we do genetically engineer a neanderthal human being. Suppose it becomes economically viable to create thousands of them, or perhaps millions of them. What then? Perhaps the military could use them as super soldiers, as they would be greatly enhanced physically, and intelligent. Perhaps man would have a new race of humans to become their “slaves”? Is this what is right? I think not, but it inevitably would happen. I think it’s best to let sleeping dogs lay.

And for those who say, ‘someone will try to have sex with it’ who is to say as an adult she wouldn’t voluntarily have sex? It would be interesting to see how easily the two species could reproduce together, though genetic evidence already suggests they likely did.

What a interesting idea. I picture their life resembling Lucy the chimps, only much more human. There is no reason to think they would have to be put in a zoo.
