Subject: Meat Machines From: "William J. Rapaport" Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2009 10:57:05 -0500 I think I mentioned a science fiction story about machines made of meat. Here's an online version: http://www.eastoftheweb.com/short-stories/UBooks/TheyMade.shtml When I looked at it, there was a Google ad for bison meat at the end of it. Kind of interestingly (in-)appropriate :-) ======================================================================== Subject: Re: CSE 719: Meat Machines From: "William J.

Here's another for the same story: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0yRsQK9vG0 Although the one that Dave cited has won an award and is sanctioned by Terry Bisson (the author) on his website, the one above is actually more faithful to the story.
