Hey, this is nothing. Wait till they start placing cells from human embryos into animal embryos. That is legal -- any experimentation on animal embryos is legal. In 30 years you can expect to see dogs with enhanced intelligence and a human genetically derived larynx. Watchdogs that will have the human equivalent IQ of around 80 and the ability to understand and speak basic human language.

And that is just the start. The Moreau concept is not new, but it will be reality in our lifetimes. And even if it is banned here -- cheap "soldiers" for the 3rd world. Imagine somebody like Saddam, with a few billion to spend, building a self breeding army of high IQ language speaking dobermans and pit bulls. Baboons that can take orders and fire AK-47s, and have no concerns about eating the population they are supposed to terrorize into following the police state directives.

The "Terminator" concept is crap. No one who knows anything about software is going to buy that one. But genetically enhanced animals? Snip, snip. A little DNA here, a little there. It won't happen fast...but it WILL happen.
