Think about the possibilities: a whole basketball team of Michael Jordans, a scientific panel of Albert Einsteins, a movie starring and co-starring Brad Pitts.
On a more serious note, some experts argue that couples who have difficulty having a baby could make copies of themselves. And p
A. humans are no less the sum of their genes than the animals
