Out From Behind This Mask
- pmoriarty 9y agoThe article mentions hairs of the deceased sometimes being stuck in these death masks. I wonder if those could be used to clone these famous people. A clone of Newton or Whitman, anyone? Of course, the clones wouldn't be like the ones we read about in science fiction -- not duplicates of the orginals, with memories and personalities inact -- and no one's cloned a human being yet. But it's conceivable that some day in the possibly not too distant future there will be more or less direct descendants of such people being born.
