mc5 - AVMA Take 2

Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

Raak

And presumably not Frankenstein's stack of spare parts, asked earlier?

Raak

Would you need a microscope to see it?

CdM

Are there more than 100 of these? No. *substantial applause*
BRAAAIIIINNNSS? No.
Would you need a microscope? No.
Chalky's summary is accurate but must be, I will remind you, carefully parsed. And perhaps it should also include the answer to her first question: It is not yet a human being.

Chalky

Do we need to examine the definition of 'human being' in order to make some progress with your little cunundrum?

Quendalon

Does it exist at the present time?

Graham III

A human clone?

CdM

Do we need to examine definition of human being? No. That's not where your confusion lies.
Exist at present time? Yes. *some applause*
Clone? No.

Juxtapose

Is it the subject of any political controversy?

Quendalon

Is sex involved?

ImNotJohn

Would the answer to any of the things this is NOT, in Chalky's list, have been yes, if the question had been posed in the plural?

e.g. more than one mammal.

CdM

Subject of political controversy? It has a connection to political controversy but is not to my knowledge the subject of pc.
Sex? No.
Yes if plural? Yes! *substantial and relieved applause*
