Major scientific breakthrough

A team led by Dr. Craig Venter and working out of Maryland in the US has succeeded in transplanted an entire genome from one organism to another effectively changing the species of the second organism and paving the way for artificial life.

The scientists in Dr. Venter's team want to quickly move on to a more challenging project and are believed to wish to attempt, through a similar genome transplant, to turn US Vice President "I'm a Big" Dick Cheney into a human being.

I do not believe this to be possible but then science has surprised me before!
