saw this on Warren Ellis's website, thought the SR community would get a kick out of it, especialy those of you who have read the chapter on 'biodrones' in Augmentation.
QUOTE Cornell University researchers have succeeded in implanting electronic circuit probes into tobacco hornworms as early pupae. The hornworms pass through the chrysalis stage to mature into long-lived moths whose muscles can be controlled with the implanted electronics. http://www.livescience.com/strangenews/080...org-insect.html -------------------- "Everyone else who lets me ride thier dinosaur calls me Carlos."
