Hi, I am new to blogs but have been involved in electrical engineering for over 15years now. Your post is good reading! Do I have to click a button or something to subscribe on this blog as I would like to check back now and then. All the best

I had problems with your site correctlly through the latest version of Opera. It’s fine in IE7 and Firefox though.

[...] Do It Yourself Biohacking | Singularity Hub "Ever wanted to play with your own genome? When you read about the latest genetic engineering tools do your fingers itch with anticipation? Do you look around the library, the pub, or the community center searching for your fellow biohackers? Look no further, intrepid gene-explorer, the Do-It-Yourself Biology movement has found a home at DIYbio.org. From the humble beginnings in the minds of Jason Bobe and Mac Cowell, the DIYbio community has exploded into the wider Internet community and is picking up interest from PBS, Seed Magazine, The Boston Globe, and many others."

“This doesn’t mean we don’t access risks and take precautions, it means that we value innovation over fear, and use scientific observation to help us make decisions, not popular perception.”

I think you meant assess ^.^ hehe.

Another point: the flat earth. If Christopho Colombo (raper of the new world – no, seriously, read his journals and letters) had valued fear over innovation like almost everyone else at the time, we might not be here arguing about this. And in relation to the last paragraph – well, how did anyone know Colombo achieved what he said he did, with his maps written on napkins? Well, other went and tried it. (turned out Colombo was wrong anyway, about where he had been) but if others hadn’t picked up on his ideas… well, where would we be now?

“The pessimist points out that the same techniques that can make biofuel bacteria, test your DNA for diseases, and find new species can just as easily produce deadly pathogens, encourage genetic self-mutilation, and release invasive microscopic species. Should we be happy or terrified?”

I would like to point out that this happens already and if we let this field of study languish we will be caught unawares without any defenses.

I mean, when vaccination was first discovered, the pope at the time called it the devil’s work.
