Remember the tearless onion invention. This is even better. Gee I'd like to be see through. too. www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?view=DETAILS&grid=&xml=/earth/2008/02/07/scifish107.xmlScientists have created ghostly transparent fish to make human biology clearer. The feat has been achieved with zebrafish are genetically similar to humans and are already in widespread use as models for human biology and disease. The new see through fish allows scientists to directly view its internal organs, and observe processes like the spread of tumours and blood production after bone-marrow transplant in a living organism, say researchers at Children's Hospital Boston.

Wow, when they clone humans to be transparent, we'll be able to look down and see why we're constipated!

It should make it a lot easier for police to know how much you've had to drink when you get pulled over..

I wonder if they'll be able to lay to rest if a person can pump your guts so full of lead. Although, it would suck to try and sleep if your eyelids are transparent.
