Comment on EPO is a nootropic by Piracetam

As a cyclist and someone who has taken piracetam as a nootropic it is kinda funny to see EPO as a cognitive enhancer. But really it is no surprise since it helps the body with oxygen flow.

Hello,
I am working on a documentary film about human enhancement in which we would like to show the drawing of artificial wombs in line (it appears in the “Abortion and freedom from nature” article and we can sse 4 babies in artificial wombs in line with a computer in front of each).
Can you please let me know where you find it because I have big difficulties to find theauthor of this image.
This is an urgent request.
Thanks,

claire

So…. how heavy flying nimals may be, or better have been? Some Pterosaur species outweighed us. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quetzalcoatlus 100-200 kilograms of flying beast. But that had its cost, 10-12m wingspan, and an optmized anatomy. We have heavy legs, walking, climbing running… you can do that or fly, the anatomy of all flying species with their lame walking abilities shows that.
Arms to wings, or extra wings would need serious power, and particularly large size. despite folding their wings, when on ground, these behemot limbs were quite hampering the good old Pterosaurs. But still, there might be some useful intermediate space. Sport technology right now teaches something.

And a few brave mad people are experimenting with the possibility of landing that cuteless, but safe. Ok, that’s nota bird’s flight, but at least a flyin’ squirrel flight is in the range of possibilities, these days…

I want to voulunteer for wing-work, if you know anyone who would test me for free, i will go there. I weigh only 120 pounds so I would have smaller wings than others-email me back at brivandale@gmail.com please!

*I would have to have feathered bird wings that were colored dirty-blond so they could match my hair. :P

However, if we were able to get the DNA for hollow bones into te human structure, then there would be nothing stopping us. Our weight would be greatly reduced and would thus allow smaller more reasonable wing sizes.
