Cloned sheep for eternity

So, they put Dolly the cloned sheep on display at the Edinburgh Royal Museum.

It's odd: I like natural history museums, but Dolly wasn't exactly natural. And I like science museums, but for goodness sake, she was a sheep. So I'm not sure how to feel about a stuffed sheep that will forever live in the hearts and minds of museumgoers.

But since I'm going to Edinburgh this fall, I might check it out, see how I feel in person!

Absolutely. Also, I'll want to visit the Museum of Scotland (http://www.nms.ac.uk/mos/index.htm), since I've still never been.

rOD.

We're going to see Dolly this week! Seriously we are. I'll let you know if we're impressed or repulsed.

A stuffed dead cloned sheep will never prance about with an 8-feet branch in its mouth on a bike path! Dogs are more fun.
