I think we need to clone Mel Gibson and Pierce Brosnan for starters.

I'll have a David Duchovny and a Jude Law, please. And throw in a Harrison Ford while you're at it.

Scott Bakula.

[can't think of how to relate this to language; oh wait - he leaves me speechless emoticon]

Hmmm.... Interesting that no men have chimed in. So much for the theory that men are visually stimulated more than women!

Now, for all us unattatched men, will one of you please start a clonely hearts club? I'll take poet Diane Ackerman or religious historian Elaine Pagels. At least with them, once the" whoopie" is done for the moment, we'll have something to say to each other.

Well, if I were to continue the cinematic theme, my pick would have to be Audrey Hepburn, since you asked.

This post was intended to be a modification of the previous one, but I pushed the wrong button. I just wanted to say that on the intellectual side of the coin, I think I would request Margery Allingham and Ellis Peters, two of my favourite mystery novel authors.

And I suppose you didn't even realise there was such a thing as a back button on your internet menu bar? Or are you trying to tell us that you'd posted the whole thing (beginning 'This post was intended to be....') before you realised your error?

Ha! Caught out, Quordlepleen!

Damn! How did you uncover my evil ploy? I was hoping to get away with doing that another 75 times before anybody noticed.

And why should that be an obstacle to cloning her, pray tell? There must be plenty enough of her DNA floating around. Just get George Lucas' wunderkinder at ILM to do their thang!

She was ... um, she was, mmm, ah, don't you think that the dinosaur cloning laboratory in Jurassic Park would be more appropriate? Or are dinosaurs still roaming the earth in Hawkes Bay?

Not unless you count Labour MPs, but Hastings Boys High is involved in a scientific joint venture with some Japanese biotech firm, investigating the feasibility of "resurrecting" the school's emblem, the huia.
