"He must, so know the starfish and the student biologist who sits at the feet of living things, proliferate in all
directions. Having certain tendencies, he must move along their lines to the limit of their potentialities."

Excuse me? I didn't catch that last part...




Ok, here's the deal. We're gonna stop growing pine trees, see? And we're gonna replace the pine trees with these genetically engineered eucalyptus trees from Australia, see? And we're gonna grow these trees really fast and harvest 'em and use 'em to produce biofuels, see? And we can grow 'em here because they're genetically engineered to not freeze, right? And we're gonna plant these genetically engineered eucalytpus on, I don't know, maybe 10 million acres across the South. And, get this cause it's like the the best part, we know that these trees won't cause any problems because they've also been genetically engineered to produce an enzyme that destroys the reproductive parts of the tree.
