Cloning

When my sister graduated from high school, there was an article in the newspaper in which valedictorians from the various high schools were asked about one thing they wished for. All but one wished for world peace or something equally lofty. My favorite response was from my sister's friend Christopher. He said he wished he had a photographic memory.

Connor, apparently, dreams along the same lofty lines as Christopher did back then. After reading about attempts to clone a mammoth, Connor asked Ed "have they ever cloned a person"? Ed responded that they had not, but he didn't know what was holding them back. Connor announced he'd like a clone. He'd like to send his clone to school every day so he can stay home and play.

Sounds good to me.
