A clone is a physical replica, that's it. If they wanted one of those they could just get a Belushi.

Wow... and I thought that if any murderous dictator would be cloned it would have been Hitler. So much for "The Boys From Brazil."

Okay children, access your holo-primers to index 86-504 and read along as we trace the history of medicine from the germ theory of disease to the first human clone. . .

As I recall, all of the Hitler clones in "Boys from Brazil" just wanted to smoke out some righteous bud and get an I-pod for their birthdays. Right? Well that's what would happen today with Stalin clones.

this would indeed be a most fascinating experement reguarding human behaviour and nation...whether it is completely genetic, or if enviroment plays a key role. Being raised by the local Communist Party, however, the result is likely to be the same.

Best leave that DNA untouched.
