More to love: dog cloning

AP is reporting that a NoCal biotech company is auctioning off -- I don't even have a noun for this -- dog cloning rights? To the five highest bidders. In other words, the company will clone the dogs of the five lucky golden ticket holders. It's no tour of a chocolate factory, but it's pretty interesting.

Many people are upset over the move, fearing it could lead to human cloning, and forgetting how useful a clone would be when they want to play hooky from work or have two dates at the same time. Heck, with a clone of yourself, you could walk your normal dog while your other self walks your cloned dog. It would be efficient, and it would totally freak out that neighbor who plays his thrash metal until 3 a.m. every night.

The company is partnering with a South Korean company which cloned one of the researcher's dogs to prove it could be done. All three clones "like steamed broccoli just like [the original] did," which proves this is real, because very few people or animals enjoy steamed broccoli.
