Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Ethical Question
ETHICAL QUESTION:
In light of the news of so-called "human cloning" going on, we have to ask ourselves this hypothetical question. If you pushed your naked clone off the top of a tall building, would it be:
A ) murder
B ) suicide, or
C ) merely making an obscene clone fall
Oh well, the guy who sent it to me said it sucked too!

Pushing your clone off the building is the same crime as pushing your identical twin off a building. It's another seperate person who happens to share your DNA, if not your mDNA (at this point in cloning technology). If your naked clone is a baby, that's even worse. It's just wrong, tossing a baby off a roof!
Now if someone programmed a robot to have the exact same brain function and memories and emotions as you, and you set it on fire just to watch it die, and it cries because it will never see your children again, that would be suicide.

Yeah... I think that would make a good novel. And I'll try not to be so depressing in the future, I promise!
Although, it IS just a robot, isn't it?
