La notizia fasulla della creazione di un cromosoma artificiale viene fuori su anche sul blog di Rob Carlson (quello delle curve di Carlson). In pratica viene confermato che la notizia è uno specchietto per creduloni:
The Guardian story includes a comment from the dependably
well-spoken Pat Mooney, director of the ETC Group. Says Mooney,
"Governments, and society in general, is way behind the ball. This
is a wake-up call - what does it mean to create new life forms in a
test-tube?"
Here is an open letter to Mr. Mooney: Dear Pat,It
doesn't mean a damn thing. Except that it helps you raise more money
by scaring more people unnecessarily, so that you can go on to scare
yet more people. Have fun with that. [Synthesis]
