    I'd like to see a machine of some sort that can replicate any organic matter. Unexpected guests at dinner? No problem, pop the chicken into the replicator and pull out two chickens in under 5 minutes. Going on a trip and need extra cash? Set the replicator timer to 1 hour and insert paper bills of choice, return to neatly stacked 50s, 100s, what have you.

    Maybe not.
