It's more than time for me to stop cautionary posts on this topic.
I, as its major critic, seem to be stimulating phrases such as "hysteria", "paranoia" and sulky phrases like "we may as well give up science altogether".
None of these comments reflect my love of science and, if applied to me are total misinterpretations of my messages.
As a fully qualified biochemist who has spent his life in science I believe I am equipped to debate this subject rationally although its nature does provoke what appear to be scare-mongering sentences. This is not
paper-comic scary fiction, its happening now.
If I may link this to Colmc's happy event, I am not having kittens over this single project! Congratulations not necessary:)
I have just been highlighting an example of where science may well be getting out of its usual ethical and well-thought-through actions.
Kindest Regards to All,
SIQ.
