The New "Brave New World"



After reading "Brave New World" the first thing I thought of the conditioning that the Director of Hatcheries and Conditioning (D.H.C.) showed the new students to his (company/school not totally sure yet) and immediately thought of those kids looking like the above picture. It's scary to me, not as much visually as it does mentally. The prejudice that the creators had (probably because the era they were doing this), they passed on to the creations and/or altered the creations prejudice. When we in our time, successfully clone a human, will we be able to do this and will we? Will robots be programmed like this with some prejudice that aspect of the machine we wouldn't like? This is the New "Brave New World" we're in.
