Genedupe: artificially cloning dragons.

"Readers with long memories may recall GeneDupe's previous attempt to break into the pet market, the Real Goldfish (see article). This animal was genetically engineered to deposit gold in its skin cells, for that truly million-dollar look. Unfortunately Dr Fril, a biologist, neglected to think about the physics involved. The fish, weighed down by one of the heaviest metals in existence, sank like a stone, as did the project. He is more confident about his new idea, though. Indeed, if he can get the dragons' respiration correct, he thinks they will set the world on fire."



Look carefully at the doctor's name.

um... did these people never read/see Jurrasic Park, or watch Rein of Fire? I think phrase I'm looking for here is..."Bad idea"

Because, of course, "Reign Of Fire" is the ONLY reason to possibly dislike the idea of genetically engineering dragons.

Reign of Fire = the closest to a useful depiction of dragons, ever. although, I admit that the only really good part of the movie is when the american guy does his jump off the tower with his battleaxe. I could watch that forever. so cool.

of course, I loved the whole acting out Star Wars for the kids, including "shhh, no, it's ok, my hand didn't really get cut off." and "Did you make that up?" "Yes, I did!"

Date's too close to April Fool's to be serious.
