The Text:
This week’s text is Control, spanning from pages 126 - 133.
Synopsis:
As Jurassic Park’s employees conclude their demonstration of all their systems of control, Grant and Malcolm find themselves uneasy with the park’s approach to controlling living, breathing animals in an artificial setting, which is aiming to recreate a natural park setting.
Discussions surround:
The Dinosaurs, Version 4.4, Control is a Hoax, the Timeline, and the God Complex.
Corrections:
Side effects:
May cause animals like the Gila monster and rattlesnake to share their hemotoxins.
