[ RadSafe ] Re: radsafe Digest, Vol 22, Issue 3

Maury et al,
    Not only would there be moral sanctions for those who choose to exploit
the natural winds, but surely the government would need to collect special
taxes from those who benefit from such questionable practices.

> Maury,
> Just remember the moral implications when going into the field of wind
husbandry. This could lead to cloning and in the end, mankind could end up
trying to play 'God' in determining which winds were better than others ,
which winds should be allowed to reproduce and which would be sterilized. We
cannot allow ourselves to become insensitive to the rights and feelings of
these winds. If we are not careful, in time, hackneyed phrases such as 'Free
as the wind' could loose their meaning. I don't even want to go into the
possible can of proverbial worms we could be opening when it comes to the
gusts and gales!
