OOC - Sci-fi Flash Fiction

New Scientist magazing has posted some really thought-provoking pieces of flash
fiction on their website.
Flash fiction is a very short story (about the size of the BD post) that is an
entire story. So it's dead easy to read.
Here's the page with several links from it.http://www.newscientist.com/special/sci-fi-the-fiction-of-now?DCMP=OTC-rss&nsref\

Theres some really interesting ideas, including one about virtual children,
using clones to extend your life, and the shortest on there is about acid rain.
Have a look, might give you ideas about a new BD story?
