Slashdot has a discussion on a paper:
http://www.molsci.org/~rcarlson/Carlson_Pace_and_Prolif.pdf
predicting the ability of people in the near future to do genetic
manipulation on affordable equipment at home (crrent price for a DNA
synthesizer 10,000 dollars and dropping..)
Entirely in line with oekonux discussion on fabbers etc but bringing
up a whole load of new and scary questions... looks like a very
interesting paper (which makes explicit comparisons with free software)
