Dentist wants to clone John Lennon from a tooth
"All you need is love DNA". A Canadian dentist said he is working with American scientists to clone John Lennon from a molar tooth that the Beatles frontman drew in 1960.
According to the press release (warning: she runs a parody of the song Love Me Do, "Love Me Tooth") dentist Michael Zuk bought the tooth at an auction for $ 31,000 and is now working with an indeterminate laboratory to see If they can clone the ex-beatle. Zuk says:
"I am nervous and excited about the possibility that we will be able to sequence all of John Lennon's DNA very soon, I hope." With researchers studying ways to clone mammoths, the same technology could certainly make human cloning a reality. "
Zuk has created a website, JohnLennonDNA, which also reveals a strange sculpture his sister made, combining Lennon and his former beatle teammate Paul McCartney, in what he calls "McLennon."
The exact details of the survey are being kept confidential.
