QuoteThe gene in question was the "fucose mutarotase" gene — abbreviated as FucM.

Researcher:  Gee, I wonder what will happen if we disable the "FucM" gene.

And they said scientists didn't have any sense of humor!

Currently, they are working on activating the FucNrd gene to see if this increases sexual activity of female mice to higly intelligent males. After that, they are going to clone Kelly LeBrock.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.
