Well....I umm...Wish you good luck.

*Shakes head*
What a waste of a perfectly good steak.

Steak. Country fried. Or fajitas. Or stir fried.

I like the occasional actual steak, but mostly, I'm for food I can wolf down quickly.

amen to that.

I am with graham here, it doesn't have to be charcoaled to be safe to eat, the problem with the way many people go about it is they use to much heat. When the heat is up to high, the outside get hot and begins to burn before the heat can really permeate the meat. If you cook it for longer at a lower temp. the the heat has time to work it's way from the outside of the meat in.

Slow-cookers make the best meat, period. :D~

No more steak I have an idea.
It seems they have enzymes that can be used to "delink" DNA like unzipping a zipper, however if you try to relink the DNA you will end up with an unmatched strand that will not zip. So it is my idea Why not cut the strand on a horizontal plane instead of vertical example:
Vertical would be like so
abdgcagcbd
agcdbggaccb
bdaabggdabc
aggbdcggab
Horizontal would be like so
ab
gc
db
ac

bg
gc
ad
The spaces illustrate a enzyme used to cut the DNA.
The problems I can think of are that you would end up not knowing what you are going to end up with..... You could end up with,
A. What you want (anthro) I guess.
B. A WTF experiment.
C. Trying to be god creates a WTF experiment that kills us all.
D. You get a cat.

We can't yet splice DNA horizontally because of the minute differences in the Helix. It's theoretically possible, every geneticist agrees on that, but we can't do it yet. Forgive me for not being any more specific - I am not a geneticist and don't really know much on the subject at all.

But I do have a question for you - why would anybody want to create an anthropomorphic creature? Nothing would ever come of it. Don't take this as me being against furries, but there's just nothing to be scientifically gained from creating such a creature, and nobody is going to fund an obviously hundred-billion+ dollar project like that to see no outcome whatsoever except a creature which would live a horrible existence in a cage surrounded by people in white lab coats.

Did you know the starfish can regenerate a limb in just a few days after it is cut off? Yes I know this idea is used in every doomsday movie you create a super soldier and they try to kill everyone, But just imagine the possibilitys.... The sad part is due to extensive genetics regulation we cannot do experiments with the combination of DNA and all that. Someday we will be on the brink of getting it right and I can only hope to still be around to see the day. I am a furry but that has absolutely nothing to do with it I just want to be around when the world is introduced to a synthetic species completely created by man. Like synthetic oil accept it has thoughts and feelings. The issues will be, however, It is like creating a robot that thinks, you end up with a I think therefore I am situation where people think that we need to give them rights and so on and so forth... Sad really but it would happen eventually.

More likely than not we're going to see genetic research sprout something up like the Omar than a real-world "Furry". Which I am grateful for, if only because of the prospect of everyone walking around in NBC gear. Suck it, environment retaliation.

I hold high hopes for genetics research but that is only to create synthetic beings.... I was watching something today on discovery about in the next 40 to 50 years being able to download our I dunno how to put it... I guess download our brains into giant [censored] servers and keep us living in a cyber world..... Seems like a bad idea but watever not on topic.

How did we jump from steak to DNA?
I didn't get to say anything D:

Steak may continue I was just thinking out loud.

I don't know why I cared. I don't like steak all that much anyway, I'm more of a seafood person.

I like asian food/sea food like Lo mein with shrimp at peiway. but yeah they will probably never ever play around with genetics because we still haven't figured out how to read DNA yet. (and if they ever do try to accomplish it I would probably be greatly disturbed.) but the idea of being in a virtual world probably be cool but I don't want to live forever.
