scientist clone dead baby cells
clones cannot have flashbacks or memories of the person that they are cloned from because memories are not carried in DNA. if that were true, then everyone would have half their mother's memories and half their father's memories.

Neither is personality*..... IMO it's our experiences, n ot our DNA, that define the kind of person we are - the 'soul', if you will.

So cloning strikes me as stupid & futile, because you're simply creating a physical copy who is a completely different person.

*well, the vast majority of it, at least.

Okay let's clear up some misconceptions.

1. Panos Zavos the scientist behind this is a twat. Just about every single other scientist involved in cloning research thinks that.

2. Cloning is deep in its infancy at the moment. Trying to clone a human is going to result in hundreds of miscarriages before you get anyone at all

3. Any baby that is born as the result of cloning will probably be horribly disabled. The result is that Panos Zavos gets sued for millions and that's the end of him.
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.
