The Future is Now

I know that many of you have been waiting with bated breath for the day when in-valids will be relegated to work that the rest of us who are genetically superior don't want to do, and I am happy to announce that the Future is Now, even if it isn't at Hudsucker Industries. The LA Fertility Institutes have announced that a trait-selected baby is expected to be born next year! We understand that one baby is hardly a whole new society, but it is always good to see science fiction writers' nightmares come true. If only the Great Cat and Dog Plague would actually happen so we can start getting apes as slaves, I mean pets. I've also been wondering when we'll finally harness all of the biological material in our oceans to create Soylent Green, or when we'll start killing off our citizens when they reach the age of 30, but I digress. At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not excited for progress, especially when it makes the scenarios in our favorite science fiction movies more probable!
