Synthetic biology is like jazz.

It's very difficult to define, but people think that they know it when they see it.

They have absolutely no peer-reviewed evidence that they work.

Ultimately, it comes down to, do you trust that humans at this point have the capacity to re-engineer nature and probably have to continue to re-re-engineer it?

Or do you not think we're that clever?
