Thanks for the interest.

A while back I was going to a gym working with a personal trainer. It was crazy, my right thigh muscle grew but my left one didn't. When I flexed (sporadic feeling below waist) the muscles bulged on the right but not left.

I don't know a lot about atrophy except I now have a couple toothpicks which is unfortunate since I'd always had pretty muscular legs'.

We aren't even smart enough to govern ourselves. What is going to happen when we really start altering our genetic code only to find out in 3 generations those modifications aren't compatible and we are going extinct.

Meh, we could use some improvement. Have you seen some of the fooked up mouth breathers walking/waddling around out there in the world?

EDIT: Ok I just checked it was 1988. And yes I know that OMNI was the trashy tabloid of science mags but what was great about it was they would publish ANYTHING and let you decide what had merit. You got tons of garbage but also tons of stuff that was ahead of its time. Oh and I was 13/14 in 1988 so don't judge me!
