<font color = lightgreen>Check this out.

That's right. For a mere $500,000 you can get your genome mapped onto a CD. Can you play it in your stereo? Probably not. Would it make for interesting reading? Who knows.
I know! It will make a wonderful anniversary present. "Honey! I mapped your genome! Do you like it?" [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img]

I wish I had the $500,000 to spend.... [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img] </font>

Pay more yearly and you can get your head frozen. Maybe someday they will thaw it out in the future and then you can live again... as a head.... On a stick prolly... :D

IIRC, genomes are the genetic code of your DNA. Took several years to map it too.

LOL, Oh what silliness will ensue!
Dagorion, you are one funny person!
Oy, I wouldnt normally post about something like this, but for some reason, that was the funniest thing Ive heard in a while...
So thanks, Dagorion! :D

If you put it on the PC does your face show up and start speaking to you?
Can you put it in a CD copier?
What WOULD it sound like on a player?!

Oh, and is it just a blank CD with 'Your Genome' written on it? Cos If so, I'll save my money thanks :D
