<div class='quotetop'></div><div class='quotemain'>Researchers have deciphered for the first time the genetic code of a tree, which could lead to new varieties better at producing wood, paper and fuel.</div>

Unlocking the genetic code of something is almost always a good thing.

Fuck yeah. Hack that shit so it's 0912489021481290490214% more efficient when we kill it.(chop it down for paper and shit LOLS)

Then we plany another tree it its place!

So we can get even more shit like Paper and printer paper

We should just have this HUGE fucking tree that grows, and have it be the only tree on earth, it'll be visible from fuckin SPACE, and instead of cutting it down we just take a little off the edge, and then splice new tree genes into it, like keep it regenerating and replensihing it's supply, and then MAYBE we could apply this technology to a source of POWER, as well!!! PINKY, HELP ME BACK IN THE CAGE! I'VE GOT TO THINK OF A PLOT TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!

On a serious note, it makes me cum everytime I read we do something this awesome. Why is there war? -_- wasting time on shit like that. Lately I've been listening to more and more System of a Down, and I notice they dont like war. I guess it's just how my music influences me, but I'm starting to feel that way too. Normally I'm all " FUCK YEAH, LET'S BLOW SOME SHIT UP! " but it's just not cool when they're only ruining our world. We're making breakthroughs like this but they mean shit because we're on the verge of WW3. bah. </emo>

Brain: Promise me something, Pinky. Never breed.
Pinky: I'll try.

Yes we are on the brink of WW3, meaning the end of the world.And we should have a huge tree that grows back..but wouldnt it adapt and take us over?

Brain: There's only one ride that interests me - the incredible thrill ride of taking over the world!
Pinky: Mmm, I think there's a height requirement for that ride.

Infamous is pleased.

Yeah... war eats money that could be better spent on something more interesting and/or productive.

 

[Infamous]

should i post a link i found about the mighty mouse gene? i dunno if anyone posted it or not.

 

[KoNaStAr]

Sure >_> Always post if it's something interesting, doesn't matter if it's here or not, we'll sort that out after it's posted <_<

As to what Ray said, yeah, there are two musical quotes I gotta post now.

" They got money for war but can't feed the poor " - 2Pac
" 4,000 hungry children leave us per hour from starvation, while billions are spent on bombs, creating death showers " - System of a Down

Yep.

 

[Zayne.H]

2pac awsome, System of a Down..too emo for my taste.

But yea we spend too much on wars, why cant we follow in the foot steps of the first Woman Egyptian Pharoah, Hatshepsut.. yes I know..I kinda digg..pun intended Anicent Egypt.She never foucused on war, and she gained back and even more money...
