I'm against cloning. I think it is designed simply for pocket-lining of the people with the currently popular horses.

I've heard them say that it's going to, theoretically, EXPAND the gene pool, since they will be more likely breed outside the 'regulars' and give some unknowns a shot.

I say 'yeah freakin right.' You just dropped $750k on a clone... you're going to breed the TAR out of it to the money-makingest thing you can get a booking with. :lol

A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep.
