Comments on Limb Regeneration Grows Closer
Frank Herbert suggested that an axolotl tank might be useful in tissue regeneration; scientists are now teasing out the salamander's secrets. (Read
the complete story)
| "I'd managed to get the impression that the Axolotyl Tanks on Dune weren't so much for limb-regeneration as growing entire clones... within human females who'd had their brains blanked, and been hooked up to tubes etc and turned into womb-machines.
Dune can be pretty mad actually." (Nick Taylor 7/3/2009 4:08:44 PM) |
| "Nick, you're probably right. I was also thinking of the similar "Atlotl/Gibiril Regimen" from Frank Herbert's 1972 novel The Godmakers." (Bill Christensen 7/6/2009 7:16:00 PM) |
| "gid, actually I think that this is a technique that would be more of interest to guys like Lorena Bobbit's husband..." (Bill Christensen 7/6/2009 7:20:40 PM) |
| "lol Bill. I'm barely old enough to remember that." (gid 7/6/2009 7:54:25 PM) |
| "Yes, but you did remember it. I kind of think most guys did." (Bill Christensen 7/6/2009 10:22:52 PM) |
