Well, here’s a sign of the times: I’ve been surprised by the number of e-mails I’ve received today from people who read that WSJ article on cosmetic genetics and responded to it by asking, “So what”? Basically: If my kid might not have a disease because of some genetic work, bring it on. The cosmetic stuff might be a little creepy, but it’s not like you’re going to stop it. Eugenics? Limits? Human Dignity? Our inability to even rouse the energy to raise questions is more than a little chilling. Fortunately some have.
