Science fiction becoming, you guessed it, science fact

A New York Times article reinforces what the complacent WFS old-timer in yesterday's post was saying: reality is struggling to keep ahead of science fiction ideas such as cloning, teleportation, miniaturisation, etc. Worth it if only for this ludicrous quote from William Shatner:

If you analyse the word "impossible," you break it down into "possible" and "I'm." If I'm possible, anything is possible.
