I do not think that people should be allowed to own the DNA of anything. If you could, then some companies might offer to change the genes of embryos to immunize them in the womb. Then after they are born the company could claim that they had a right to their DNA, and therefore their person, effectively making them slaves. Then they could make an army try to take over the world. And I think we can all agree that it would be bad.
I interveiwed Jack Panighetti for story of the seed #5. first question, what surprised you during the year? Jack: I was surprised when we saw the onion cell under the mircoscope. Will: what was the hardest project we've done so far? Jack: the hardest project I've done so far is when we repaired and painted the chicken coop. it was difficult because my partners did'nt show up some times and the hay was hard to get out. Will: what have you learned about growing plants? Jack: Over time I have learned that the plants need time to grow and you have to check up on them to make sure the weeds are not stealing water from our plants. Will: that's the end of our interveiw, thanks.
