Twink, I wasn't targeting you in that post. I was talking about myself. Best, Greenie

Grandparents. Oh, god.

This is stupid.

What's the point of cloning yourself? You're raising a lump of flesh that looks like you, but it's not the real you starting over is it?

Then your sons would have to ask their Mom's permission to dance with their Sister.....Mom? Now I'm dizzy and I can't even dance.

I'll send one me to Paris, one to Saudi Arabia, and other to Singapore, and so on. And then I'm going to watch how I grow up in these different cultures. Every seven years, I'll bring all the me's together and ask questions and film me. I'm going to turn it into a huge documentary: seven me's, seven different cultures, every seven years. Brilliant.

Watch should I use as a title for the documentary?

"The Magnificent Seven"... wait that one may be taken.

Imagine. You could basically repeat your childhood through another human being who had the exact same genetic material as yourself.

And for us single women, this could be the ideal situation. Now we can spend our Holidays with ourselves, giving ourselves the best Christmas ever.

What do you think?
Isnt that almost the same as if you just had a child regularly? The experiences would not be the same as when you were a child. Now, if I had some great physical gifts like if I were Michael Jordan or Bruce Lee or LeBron James, then I would probably try to raise a few of me. Imagine the signing bonuses, huge sports contracts and athletic apparel contracts my kids would have come NBA draft night. Imagine 5 LeBron James' being drafted or imagine someone breaking into my home armed with only a baseball bat only to be confronted with five angrey 20 year old Bruce Lees. That would be something.

But since Im just a plain old person, I would think nothing special of raising a clone of myself as a baby. My daughter is close enough.
