        How much weed do you have to smoke to start thinking about storing movies in your DNA?

        Now will they clone the cells if they need more copies of the movie?

        Technically since they put it into the DNA it should be passed on when the cell copies said DNA in order to divide.

        Unless their film data wrote over the cell replication instructions...

        I may be mistaken, but I think they just add the DNA on as an extra sequence. I don't know what it might encode into though.

        Scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should ;-)

        "I'll hack his mind" is something I thought it was reserved only for sci-fi movies, but It seems closer to reality now!
