'We can already use DNA, for example, to make electronic circuits so it's possible to think of a smart yoghurt some time after 2020 or 2025, where the yoghurt has got a whole stack of electronics in every single bacterium. You could have a conversation with your strawberry yogurt before you eat it.'
I keep trying to think what the yoghurt would say and all I can come up with is

I'd respond, "Dude, you're a bastard child of science. It truly sucks to be you. I'll be doing you a favor; trust me."
Good times, good times. If they've been married the one year, she kills with paper, right?
I'm sure JZ has a book of medieval literature or marriage customs around somewhere that's heavy enough to snap someone's neck in a poetically just fashion.
Soccer update. Soccer men pretty.
The founders of TCBY will be the first against the wall when the yogurt revolts.
