Ms. Jacobson, a high school history teacher, described to students what New Era scholars have called ''the greatest life-changing event in human history.''


    "After the restoration and multi-billion dollar funding of The Office of Technology Assessment, a select committee of scientists secretly gathered for a special meeting called ''A New Era of the Cyborg.''"


    "An anonymous cybernetics startup company had invented a nanotechnology that could be injected into the bloodstream and enhance or often replace any organ with technology over biology."


    "The committee''s chairperson, Dr. Julia Lee, a physicist, had spoken, ''We are here to discuss the ramifications of this technology on society. A new era of the cyborg is on the horizon, but what are the consequences?''"

    "Samantha Nunez, a representative of the nanotech company, responded, ''The possibilities are limitless: never aging, interstellar space travel, the conquering of disease and even death. It is the next step in our human evolution.''"


    "However, Dr. Samuel Jenkins, a distinguished sociologist and human rights activist, presciently asked, ''Is it your company''s intention to improve the quality of the life of the individual, by their own choice, or to make people more efficient, compliant, and profitable citizens?''"


    "The meeting went on for several days to discuss that very question …"


    "What came of it?" asked a student.


    "Isn''t it obvious?" answered Ms. Jacobson. "Do you know of anyone after the age of 21 with their whole biological body left?''
