Humanity Advances... 

In Scientists create 'no-tears' onion

Alert

1876, Bell patents first electrical sound transfer system ...to provide the humanity a way to advertice magazines directly to our homes.

1884, Nipkow patents first electro mechanical image-transfer system ...to provide humanity the Big Brother and other utterly tasteless reality-TV shows.

1969, ARPANET goes online ...to provide humanity a nuclear attack resistant way to watch porn.

And now they have mastered the genome ...to prevent onions tearing us up.

What's next? Space rockets to haul us closer to sun to get that perfect tan?
