Greta y Morgan eran el matrimonio de científicos más avanzados en ingeniería genética.
Tenían el privilegio de trabajar desde su propio laboratorio en casa y como personas inteligentes habían detectado las instalaciones desde donde el gobierno los espiaba, y habían desactivado éste eufemísticamente llamado "monitoreo", suplantándolo con un ingenioso sistema de proyecciones en video a donde se les veía pasar las horas en la investigación de semillas transgénicas y animales verdura, una nueva especie de pollos que podían plantarse como semillas y a las tres semanas los tenías cacareando y en tres más listos para el horno.
Dicen que a los humanos no hay nada que nos atraiga más que lo prohibido.
Los superiores habían puesto en claro que a nadie se le permitiría jugar a Dios por su propia cuenta.
Ellos como personas concientes no querían crear al guerrero del futuro, y pasaron por alto participar en el programa Neo-Adán cuando fueron invitados aludiendo que no encontraban nuevas avenidas para clonar al humano, pero que de hacerlo aportarían los datos al departamento correspondiente.
Esto último no era pleno de exactitud.
Llevaban tiempo de haberse clonado ellos mismos. Fué maravilloso. Como beber de la propia fuente.
Comenzaron a utilizar a sus primeros clones para que los suplantaran en todo tipo de tareas pesadas.
Asistencia a congresos aburridos. Juntas del consejo científico. Hasta asuntillos tediosos como ir al banco o a declarar los impuestos.
Y así fué que se dedicaban al placer. A pasear al perro. A navegar en el yate. A la dolce vita.
Tuvieron que mudarse a una gigantesca mansión para ocultar a las 40 parejas de clonados que ya tenían.
Con un gran jardín para producir su pollo verdura y alimentar a todos.
Cada uno de los individuos copia que habían producido se supeditaba a cumplir con sus órdenes al pié de la letra y trabajaban gustosos por la comida.
Esto debe permanecer bajo total sigilo pues de enterarse el gobierno, de seguro harían mal uso de ésta función. Y el posible genocidio de los disidentes.
ENGLISH VERSION.
Greta and Morgan were the most advanced married couple working in the field of genetical engineering.
The government privileged them with a home laboratory, and intelligent as they were, they deactivated all the spy ware their bosses had installed . Called euphemistically "monitoring". They replaced this feature with a complex series of videos where they would appear to be involved full time in their food research program
Their main accomplishment was the vegetable chicken. A fowl species that grew from planting seeds on a special mix. In three weeks the chicks were running around and clucking. Three more weeks and they were table ready.
They say nothing attracts human so much as the forbidden fruit. The bosses had set a firm boundary.
No one gets to play God. Unsupervised, that is. And they objected in conscience to be part of production of species of warriors and other horrors.And declined taking part in the Neo- Adam research project when invited to join. They claimed to have reached a blockage in human artificial genetics, something about soul transmission that perhaps was a deity's exclusive field or natural selection if you prefer. But to hide their real intentions they agreed to report any new idea or finding they would happen to reach.
Which they knew was a gross inaccuracy as far as all the findings they kept in chryptic secrecy.
Truth is they had cloned their own selves years ago. It was marvelous. Drinking from their own fountain.
They would supplant theirselves with their own duplicates.
To assist a boring congress. To go to tedious meetings. Even for menial daily tasks like going to the bank or taking care of their taxes.
So their life turned into full pleasure mode. Yachting. Painting .Walking the dog. Partying and living the dolce vita.
They moved to a gigantic mansion to house the plus twenty couples of clones they had produced so far. With large farm areas to breed the vegetable chicken to feed everyone. A large underground garage would conceal the comig and going of the clones in glass tinted mini vans.
Each one of their identical copies was totally subordinated to them. They followed every order blindly and work full time just for the food and housing.
This should never come to the government's awareness. They could not put the rest of humanity under risk of missuse of their discoveries. Nor the imminent risk of genocide

Resolví el dilema acerca de como decidir a quien echar fuera de la balsa cuando todos se quieren por igual, pero de no hacerlo se ahogarían.
Tomar turnos y arrastrar a los que quedan en el agua.
Quizás ésto dé luz para ser aplicado en otro tipo de emergencias.
ENGLISH VERSION.
I have solved the dilemma of deciding who gets off the lifeboat when all inside love one another, but not doing so would drown everyone.
Take turns and drag all who remain in the water.
Perhaps this might be applied to other sort of emergencies.

El astronauta vio sentado por los anillos de Saturno a uno de los seres eternos que habitan el espacio exterior. Bajó de la nave y entabló una conversación con él para incluirla en el reporte de su viaje:
----¿ Que haces por aquí en medio de lo inhabitado?---
----Me gusta venir a éstos luminosos lugares para comprobar cuan exacto se vá tornando mi futuro a ser igual a como yo decidí manipular que fuése.----
----Eso es algo que no se le dá a mi especie. Pues siempre nos llega un momento final en que no tenemos futuro.---
----No se ni que decirte. Que situación tan jodida.---
ENGLISH VERSION
As the astronaut arrived by one of Saturn's rings, he saw one of those eternal beings sitting there. He decided to have a chat and include it in the report for his trip.
----Hey, what's up?.---
----Not much. Just evaluating how much of my future is turning out to be just the way I planned it.----
----That is something very few in my species can do. Sooner or later we come to a point at which there is no future.---
----What can I say. That sounds frankly shitty.---
