If dolly was full of crunchy-yummy goodness they would make more of her for us to eat.

Actually, I've devised this scheme, we clone the fastest strongest and brightest soldiers we can find, then when we put these helmets on them see, these helmets play back military doctorine, weapons technology, and various other things that would serve a soldier well. This whole time they are hooked up to machines like those ab tonners, only for the whole body, I figure, by age ten we have psychotics super warriors who know how to do nothing but conquer everything around them. We drop them on some poor unsuspecting country, they conquer it, then because they are clones of older people, they die by 20, and we come in and take control.....

My plan, is fool proof.

Pfft... foolishness is learned, not inherited... Oh, and all my soldiers will have six fingers on each hand, so we can have a base twelve number system in my military like our great alien ancestors.

How about eight fingers on each hand? Then they can count in hexadecimal; it would give them a huge advantage in learning computer science.

Naaah, us compsci majors can count in Hex with only 7 fingers... oh wait I mean 10
anyhow, the biggest reason clones die out fast is the telomere shortening... if you took young DNA, modified it, you could feasibly make a clone with good telomeres, or ever longer telomeres. Very Deus Ex like....
