Wow. We have green fluorescent monkeys, and now fluorescent potatoes...will
the fluorescing carry over to the tuber? Will we be able to feed our
fluorescent monkeys fluorescent potatoes? How about glow-in-the-dark french
fries? luminescent potato chips? The possibilities are endless...
>># Fluorescent GM potatoes say 'water me'. (BBC) A potato
genetically-modif-
ied with jellyfish genes which glows when it needs watering is created by
Edinburgh scientists. The team believes the genetically-modified (GM)
plant will prevent overwatering at time when the world's water resources
are being more & more heavily used. And they're easy to pick in the dark.

: Would you like to be gene-engineered so that you glow when you need food,
water, sleep, sex, drugs, punishment? Should we be color-coded? Is you
blue?<<
