You, yes, but ME!

Do I even want to know what you'd be regenerating?

Anything I want?

(I've got a ton of scars I could see gone. I'd lose my piercings, but, hey!)

If I lose a limb I might feel differently, but I think that regenerating *my* scars would end in badness. ;) And fucked if I'm losing my piercings after all this. XD XD

the article talks about regenerating limbs, but from what I can see they haven't tested chopping off a mousy foot (or even a toe) just piercings

I'd like a working left eye. Oh, and the right one would be nice to have back at its old level (better than 20/20, but I can never remember which number indicates what), instead of the nearsighted it has become over the last threeish years.

The first # is the distance you can see at, the second # is the distance you *should* be able to see at. I used to have 20/15, meaning I could see at 20 feet what most people could see at 15 feet.
