kbordson 8 #5 October 18, 2006 That's difficult.... Certain Emotions? Anger, jealousy, hate, fear? But those are just neural interpetations of chemical stimulation. If we remove the chemicals (serotonin, dopamine or any of the neurotransmitters) then that could change love, passion and hope. Cancer? If there aren't genetic mutations, then change never occurs. Sometimes change is bad, sometimes change is good. Ignorance? Gives us a starting point to learn. But I would probably change "intolerance." (that or the gag reflex.. I know why the system was set up ... that whole aspiration thing... but it is a bit inconvient ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, I wonder what the tradeoff would be to put breasts on the back, it would make slow dancing more interesting. But chairs would have to be redesigned. ...

jakee 1,262 #10 October 18, 2006 Quote What's with the knee? Who thought that up? A hugely load bearing joint the equivalent of a few sticks attached with rubber bands........ Not just the knee - we need to rework the entire leg and hip into something actually intended for walking upright on QuoteAlso, I wonder what the tradeoff would be to put breasts on the back, it would make slow dancing more interesting. But chairs would have to be redesigned. It would certainly become much easier to ogle, er, I mean appreciate without being noticed. We would also be much more likely to actually pay attention to what women are telling us. I'm not yet sure if this would be a plus or a minus.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

freethefly 6 #14 October 18, 2006 Skin color. We would all be one color or a multitude of colors (kinda like that ice cream - neopolitan). For a single color, I think, I would choose lime green."...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black."
