Snuppy, the Top Invention of 2005

Time Magazine has selected Snuppy the cloned dog - yes yet another South Korean reference - as the most amazing invention of 2005. Yes that went to press before this morning. Their top pick for "what people are saying" about Snuppy is a guest posting on this blog written by Penn's Autumn Fiester, which to our knowledge is the first of our posts to go directly from blog to textbook - it is being published next year in that form.
