*That headline may sound like tabloid bait, but this is quite a thoughtful and well-researched article. It had never occurred to me, for instance, that cloned Neanderthal stem cells and tissues might have commercial biomedical applications.
*But one rather imagines they would.
*It's also quite eerie to learn that the best current candidates for Neanderthal cloning are a group of murdered Neanderthals who were devoured by cannibals 49,000 years ago. Imagine these gruesome cannibal victims being turned, at long long last, into little living Petri puddles of Neanderthal flesh. Are those gonna be the most luckless parahumans ever, or what?
