Good. They just bred you out of the gene pool.

damn straight. my genes or anyone elses are nothing all that special. this wierd idea of immortalizing ones genes is just stupid. I have had my space time and thats enough.

You're only here because people have been immortalizing themselves through genes for generations.

If you're not strong enough to continue on that trend, then you don't get to continue past this point.

Other people will, though, and influence the world accordingly.
