<html><div style='background-color:'><P>Hi all, </P>
<P>I'm doing some research into the attitudes towards the modification of the human body through technology (bioengineering, prostehitcs, neural implants, nano tech, genetic engeneering etc, integration with wearables) and I was wondering if any of you would like to modify your bodies in the future when/if the technology becomes available?</P>
<P>I'd be interested to know what you think about the body if you do want to modify. I hypothesise that those who see the body as a mechinical/cybernetic system will not be too bothered about modifying their body, while those who see the body as sacred etc will disagree with modifying technology.</P>
<P>Any comments, links that you know of that might be useful? I'm trying to locate people who are against these types of modifications - do any of you know of anyone/site/articles?</P>
<P>Thanks very much!</P>
