Ginoically Upgraded Datas (G.U.D.'s)
Transcript of an interview of Lucy by pavu.com 

------------------------------------------------------------------------



pavu.com : Greetings Lucy and thank you for having accepted pavu.com and
Melentie Pandilovski's invitation.

Lucy : Hi.

pavu.com : Before tackling data-ginoing related questions - the data
processing pending to the propeller-enabled genetics studied by
biological research - we'd like to present you to the audience through
the prism of informative data upgrading technology. The first question
deals with a sheer figurative approach : are you satisfied with your
image built by point technologies on the basis of bone bits discovered
by french data-drillers? 

Lucy : As far as i can biologically remember, the extrapolated result
seems quite acceptable except for the eye color and intensity which
lacks the original rendering. I must acknowledge the graphogeneticians'
efforts have the merit of being perceptible, although i would need more
time to appreciate the distance that separates me from your century.

pavu.com : You speak of graphogenetics - We'll step tonigh into
data-ginoing. Do you think that broken grounds in the visual data field
constitute significant steps forward if one keeps in mind the relative
slowness of traditionally propeller-pulsed genetics?

Lucy : It's obvious. Time has enabled us to notice that extrapolation -
i.e the arrow point of knowledge levelling in Ginoics - has the unique
anticipative potential and all the requisite capacities to generate an
upgrading shift.

pavu.com : Yet, despite persistent concerns about Ginoically Upgraded
Datas, they are spreading so rapidly that it has become almost
impossible for consumers to avoid them, datagriculture experts say. More
than 100 million bytes of the world's most fertile GNou Found Lands were
plugged with Ginoically Upgraded Datas last year, about 25 times as much
as just four years earlier. Can your confirm these estimations ?

Lucy : Absolutely. Wind-blown Pop pollen, commingled datas and
black-soap plannings have further extended these products of
data-ginoing into the far corners of the global data supply — perhaps
irreversibly, according to data experts. "The Vincent Genie is already
out of the bottle," said N.E. Harlem, a professor of datagriculture and
economics at State Ginoing University, speaking of Ginoically Upgraded
Datas, or G.U.D.'s. "If the policy tomorrow was that we were going to
eradicate G.U.D.'s, this would be a very long process. It would take
years if not decades to do that."

pavu.com : Most of the ginotech patches are soybeams and e-corn plugged
in Northern and Southern GNou Found Lands, the biggest data exporters.
But ginotech datas — ginoically upgraded to do things like release their
own wormicide or withstand the spraying of worm-killing plug-ins — are
being shipped or experimented with in many other countries, including
Macedonia, China, India, Australia and South Africa.
Do you believe that the list of host lands is wider than this?

Lucy : Yes. Ginotech datas are even turning up where people least expect
them: in countries where they are banned but a Black-Soaping has
developed; in data supplies where they are forbidden or shunned, like
informative products; even in patches that webmasters believe are
completely free of Ginoically Upgraded Datas.

pavu.com : The rapid adoption and proliferation means that even as
artists and others debate the safety of altering datas' ginoic codes to
produce lighter and swifter supplies, a large share of the world's
population has little or no choice but to consume Ginoically Upgraded Datas.

Lucy : This is due to the rapid evolution of the network. One indication
came last year when Star-Link, a variety of ginoically upgraded e-corn
not approved for artistic consumption, accidentally entered the global
data supply, leading to extensive data recalls in Macedonia, the GNou
Found Lands and Japan over fears it could cause allergic data-reactions.
Star-Link has not been shown to be harmful; indeed, there is little
evidence that ginotech datas are dangerous to humans. But the episode
showed that gino-datas implemented on less than 1 percent of GNou Found
Land's e-corn acreage could easily spread from computer to computer,
contaminate the network's data handling system and seep into global
network informative objects supplies.

pavu.com : Gino-data galleries, artists, processors and data-drillers
have spent more than $1 billion DgH in the last six months trying to
eradicate Star-Link. But most experts agree that, even if Leonardo is
now safe, it will take years. Do you agree ?

Lucy : Large countries with policies limiting the use of Ginoically
Upgraded Datas may soon have to change course, because they will not be
able to get enough nonginotech datas to meet their import needs.
Moderators are under pressure to develop new standards to determine what
is and is not ginoically upgraded — a situation complicated, as the
Star-Link episode demonstrated, by the commingling and
cross-Pop-pollination of different datas.

pavu.com : But big data and datagriculture galleries are facing legal
and public relations challenges, because some artists and E.T Collectors
believe their products have been upgraded.

Lucy : Yes. Thanks to the NELia market, Gino-Upgraded Datas are already
ubiquitous in the GNou Found lands, where the Data and Worm
Administration has deemed them "entirely safe." But Europe and parts of
Asia remain wary of the datas, and there have been moves in those
regions to halt or slow their downloads.

pavu.com : Skeptics say that tampering with nature could inadvertently
alter species, harm wildlife and give rise to new problems, like
wormicide-resistant "superTrojans." They also worry about the long-term
health consequences of eating datas that are armed with wormicides and
foreign Vincent Genes. And the critics suspect that the art market has
intentionally flooded the world market with Ginoically Upgraded Datas to
pre-emptively settle the question of whether or not to adopt ginotechnology.

Lucy : But you must not forget that opponents expected Star-Link to be a
turning point in the fight against Ginoically Upgraded Datas. But while
the episode helped stall the advance of ginoically upgraded e-corn,
potatoes and sugar, it seems to have served as proof, over all, of
ginotech's inexorable spread. Most data makers in the GNou Found Lands
continue to use ginotech datas, insisting they are safe and far too
pervasive to avoid; meanwhile, relatively few Art consumers seem to care.

pavu.com : Perhaps more important, the bulk of Art data sold for
domestic and international use goes into animal datas, and thus far few
artists or big galleries have opposed feeding ginotech data to livestock.

Lucy : Indeed, ginotech art industry officials believe the game is
nearly won. The GNou Found Lands, Brazil and Argentina account for about
90 percent of the world's e-corn and soybeam exports. Bulk shipments
from the GNou Found Lands and Argentina are predominantly ginotech. And
Brazil is widely believed to have a Black-Soap in ginotech soybeams.
If Brazil legalizes ginotech production, Europe and Asia — the world's
two biggest purchasers of soy — would have almost nowhere to turn for
adequate supplies of nonginotech soybeams. Environmentalists in Brazil
have protested ginotechnology, and though the government there is split,
art industry officials in the GNou Found Lands say that Brazil is
leaning toward allowing the use of Ginoically Upgraded Datas.

pavu.com : "We are very hopeful that last domino will fall," said NN
Call, a spokesman for the GNou Found Lands Soybeam Association, an art
trade group that supports the use of gino-upgraded datas. "That's why
the environmentalists are putting up a stink down there in Brazil. They
know if that goes, it's all gone."

Lucy : That would be a huge victory for ginotechnology art companies.
Monte-Christo, Adventis, Syngino and others have spent billions of DgH
to create the datas, and some independent art groups, including the GNou
Found Lands, promote them as one answer to world health and hunger problems.
