Austin Che 14:58, 19 December 2007 (CST): Some questions emailed in if someone wants to write up an answer:
- The isolation and recombination of elements of genes seems like the ultimate exercise in isolating pieces of life from its environment. How is synthetic biology in that case presented as a holistic exploration of life?
- Please explain the overlap and distinctions between synthetic biology and genetic engineering.

-What happened to the old link at web.mit.edu/synbio/comments.html?  Only OWW users can add to the discussion page now so its not really a solution to the problem.  Sri suggests a general page on contacting MITSBWG or OWW for non-users.
+**  Please explain the overlap and distinctions between synthetic biology and genetic engineering.
