video games out rank cloning in technology break throughs.

Video games have had a far greater direct impact on society than cloning has IMO. I was a bit surprised that Wireless came out on top but it does make sense. There is a lot that's being done in this field and I think we can only expect it to grown (Blackberries, pagers, phones, internet access, RFIDs, etc.).

The question is: what will be #1 in 25 years from now?

Money talks and the market for video games is greater than the market for identical sheep. ;)

Mainstream media is such a joke. They wouldn't know technology if it bit them on the ass.
