EC > In late developments from John Hopkins it appears that it may be possible to clone gold miners

It would appear so. As I understand it, this is a picture of the laboratory with the cloning experiment in progress. If you look closely at the picture you will observe that the instructor on the ground has his clone hidden by the black mark.

>since the clones have no legal status, they are expendable, and high risk mining practices thence becomes practicable

I think that was the approach originally taken in SAn gold mines where it was considered that the African miners brought in from many places in the continent were simply clones. As you say they had no legal status, were expendable, and thus high risk mining practices became practicable. Today, however, since the African miners have more status than investors or mine-owners high-risk mining is no longer feasible --- only high-risk investing.

>the science of cloning has advanced to where it is now possible to replicate non living things in great versimiltude and the cloning of gold mines is now possible.

Indeed so. As I understand it, from a definition which I heard many years ago, a gold mine is in fact a hole in the ground owned by a liar. Hence replication of liars will create a profusion of gold mines. This was a practice tried recently by large US companies in IT, finance and investing such as Enron, Worldcom etc--- and they nearly got away with it.

>The exciting possibilities of cloning investors, money, and gold has led us to name a 100% subsidiary (uncloned) as Canada-Wide Gold and Wealth Cloning Ltd

I have an idea that that approach was tried with great but only temporary success on the NASDAQ.

>A first investor is required before cloning experiments can begin.

As a precaution, it may be advisable to check first that some US biotech company has not already taken out patents on the cloning (and cleaning-out) of investors.
