Bio-tech has created as many problems as it has fixed, but we're here, we're alive, we're the human race, we have survived wars and terrorism and scarcity and global famine, and we have made it back from the brink, not once but many times. History is not a suicide note - it's a record of our survival."

The whole package was beyond thrilling... yet her mind, her heart, those were the immortal aphrodisiacs."
