“Scientists Genetically Engineer a Monkey.” They named it ANDi, which is a backwards acronym for “inserted DNA”. I don’t like that name. It reminds me of “D.A.R.Y.L.”, that movie starring Barret Oliver as a “Data Analyzing Robot Youth Lifeform” that I was obsessed with back in 1985. I think both cloned monkeys and android boys need real names if they’re gonna grow up with their self-esteem intact.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
