A Cloning Business Anyone?

It looks like Sriharsha (over in the Bio Entrepreneurs world forum) wants to establish a future cloning business.

i just want to set up a genetic company.it should be dealing with human cloning. i know its banned in many countries.but cum on guys we have to explore the thins out and we can understand the truth of life only by this method. i think man should becum a bit more bold and try these things. so i'll start my own genetic company.

Although most of the reaction is positive, Prasoona (on page two) disagrees, citing that gene therapy and tissue regeneration techniques would be more effective.

They would also be more legal, as many nations have already passed laws against cloning, and many religions oppose its practice as well. If I were Sriharsha, I would seriously consider moving towards Antarctica and setting up shop there.

Is The Bermuda Triangle That Scary?

I have heard of many rumors about the Bermuda Triangle, and despite experts proving that the area is no more mysterious than any other region, some people still believe it is occupied by UFO's, an alternate universe or just plain bad luck.

In the "All About the Bermuda Triangle" forum, Pacific explains the real fuss behind a region feared by many.

i have passed thru the B triangle about 7 times. and im still around to tell the tale.

the 1st time it was a little scary but after that it was just routine. [...]

First, the "Devil's Triangle" is one of the two places on earth that a magnetic compass does point towards true north. Normally it points toward magnetic north. The difference between the two is known as compass variation.

The amount of variation changes by as much as 20 degrees as one circumnavigates the earth. If this compass variation or error is not compensated for, a navigator could find himself far off course and in deep trouble.

Pacific goes on to explain that the area is also very violent (weather wise) and many of those missing people in the region disappear because of either human error or there boats were not prepared to handle the environment. So much for the UFO theory.
