in all honesty, though we do have an economy that at least partially depends on how we mass produce animals for consumption, the idea of engineering living things for profit really freaks me out. as in, i think it's totally wrong.

Do not spar with me about ethnics because if it came down to a challenge between you and me only one person would walk away from it alive - AND IT WON'T BE ME, MISTER!

That's a quote (or nearly so) from a fight between Captain America and Batroc Ze Leaper (a very crap villain). I knew you'd all want to know that.
Martin: I thought that pigs were the only animal other than humans that could get sunburnt.
Don't ask me, I only read the papers. Perhaps chickens would have been included if they'd tested some bald ones.
Incidentally, offensive as all this is, is it really any worse than the unspeakable conditions battery chickens are kept in anyway? This isn't the thought of some veggie nutter: I refuse to eat vegetables for moral reasons. Except chips and crisps (that's fries and chips, to the Americans here). Sorry: the moral argument is too sophisticated and complex to be expressed in any puny human language. And my dad was a butcher and chickens taste nice. Nonetheless, the battery conditions are cruel and unnecessary.
hehe. well, brian, reality check...
don't get me started on my irrational beliefs about population...

the idea of engineering living things for profit really freaks me out.
Does anyone have a link to the place that did this? i thought that it didn't involve any engineering and it had been done by a non-profit institution.

Even though the look a bit weird, I like the hairless cat. It's supposed to be like having a living hot water bottle. I've got bad allergies, so it would be ideal to have a hairless cat.

Hi guys... Sorry but chickens have never had hair, only feathers... If they are growing a real chicken without feathers though, I'll stand in line and buy one for sure. If they start growing boneless chickens, just think! We'll get more meat for our money :) :)
