Well, Tom, I usually agree with you, BUT. I think that making organs sell for a profit will mean that the poor, instead of having to get black market organs, will start BEING black market organs, i.e. the criminals will kill the poor people (who "nobody misses") and take their organs. Sort of a more deadly and even less desirable type of shanghaiing people. I guess that I don't like the idea of organ banks at all. Seems to me that we should be able to GROW organs long before we really lick the problem of rejection. Then, what do we need organ banks for? Perhaps as a short term solution, it's not so bad, but... WeMadeIt I think the word "greedy" DOES have a use in this society. It describes the actions of most of the Druckerite managers perfectly, in that it shows someone cutting off their long term existance for a rich time in the next 5 years. -- O o From the pyrolagnic keyboard of ~ rabbit!jj -v-v- \^_^/
