It is now possible to change your hair color (if you have
been genetically engineered to do so...) by simply changing
your "sucrose-water" drink to a "lactose-water" drink.
Gadzooks, what are the luddites going to think -- I can see
it now:
"We must reverse this trend. People should get their hair
colored the old-fashioned way with carcinogenic dyes derived
from *natural* coal-tar deposits".
