"Science fiction is the very literature of change. In fact, it is the only such literature we have."
- Frederik Pohl

Science Chair  
  Grown from your DNA for extra comfort.  

I shuffle all the way back on the dead man's office chair until my feet come off the floor and then I push off with my right hand so that I am spinning slowly around. The chair is a science, chair, translucent and nasty. They take a seed from your your cartilage and grow it and then you sit in it because something something immune response something biota. Supposedly it's good for you, but who knows? High ticket item.
