All for it. Believe it to be the next step in human development since our current "survival of everyone" isn't helping the gene pool.

Not that I think we'll all benefit from it. It's going to be a really bumpy ride until such technology is universally available.

Even if such technology is a universal constant; advancements could make the GE market parallel to today's PC market. Imagine being a 26 year old 8-bit 8086 in the Quad Core age. Parents will have to make tough choices like whether to go with iGirl or WinBoy?

We might lose the soul of humanity. We'll get to a point where genetic value becomes the yardstick for personal worth. The ultimate evolution of materialism - think Patrick Bateman 2.0.

Still. I think it's worth the risk.
