Our weight would be greatly reduced and would thus allow smaller more reasonable wing sizes.

It's as if I have wings already on my back, perhaps beneath my skin, that are waiting to burst out. I can feel it now- something that feels like wings tucked up on my back. It feels different to usual right now,though, don't know why. Zarnlee, I have the same feeling as you.

It's as if I have wings already on my back, perhaps beneath my skin, that are waiting to burst out. I can feel it now- something that feels like wings tucked up on my back. It feels different to usual though, don't know why. Have you guys read the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer? I have- was thinking maybe develop electronic wings to fly with, like Holly. They could be part of clothing, or be strapped on, or grafted to our bones (painful, though). Wouldn't want to lose my hands, though. Not that that happens in Artemis Fowl. I have read Maximum Ride. I WANT WINGS! I'm twelve years old. Would my age help me have wings? Probably not. I want to be a scientist and artist when I grow up. I have seen tv programs on DNA modification. I love science!!!
