Oh the fun we can have with tihs concept.
Take the young rebooted Stravinsky, and lock him in a cell with nothing but the Bee Gees, or (whimper!) Philip Glass. See what he can come up with from there.
Take a buncha Jeffrey Dahmers, put'em thru boot camp, and get a commando squad that needs no food.
Howzabout: Take that skinny Ulyanov boy and show him a fistful of MSFT options.
Clone a whole lotta Audrey Hepburn. No real reason.

FT, There was a program on PBS tonight about the large amount of documents on the Nazis and the building of the Auschwitz camps that were gathered up by the Russians and unknown to the West until '91. They have now been made available to scholars. I appear to have been wrong about my speculation that the Nazi's didn't use the ovens to cremate bodies because of the fuel cost, and time to burn the bodies. It now looks as though they were used a lot because they were having a problem with mass disposal in the trenches, as the decomposing bodies started rising to the surface with the Spring thaws.

The scholars that are now going through those documents say that they indicate widespread knowledge by a lot of people as to what was going on, not just a small group of Nazis. We will be hearing more about this in the future.
