What I want for Christmas

What do I want for Christmas? This is a question I wrestle with every year. I am not very good at getting presents for other people, but I am even worse at telling others what I want. I like music and movies and sweaters, that's about it. But today I found what I want... A Wooly Mammoth! Some Japanese scientists are working on cloning one, and so I figured it wouldn't be long before you can buy one at the Wal-Mart. What I have always liked about Jules Verne is the way he writes science fiction, I read it, then I walk outside and experience what he was writing about (rockets to the moon, underwater travel, dinosaurs in the center of the earth). Now it appears as if Michael Crichton will have his moment of glory when at last, pre-historic creatures are brought back to life (and eat everyone). Can I get an "oh yeah buddy"!!!
