Baby Factory

This report describes an ultra-modern baby factory:

Nowhere mentioned is that a facility almost exactly like this was described in Chapter 1 of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World in 1932, 90 years ago!

Such a baby factory may be intended for general use, but I think it's more likely the rich will be the only ones who can afford it. After all, do TPTB really want or need to create "perfect" underlings with super-human abilities?

Don't think so.
