QuoteAccording to The Independent's Rob Williams and other news reports, the fetuses had been roasted and covered in gold leaf as part of a ritual. Chow Hok Kuen, a British citizen, was planning to sell them to people looking to get rich.

Well that nukes my faith in humanity for the week life. This is beyond fucked up.

What makes me more sick than the idea of people smuggling dead babies for ritual purposes? Oh. I'll leave that for you to guess.

Wuld it be the other thing mentioned in the article?

I'll just leave this warning here:

FOR THE LOVE OF ANYTHING YOU HOLD DEAR, DO NOT READ THE ARTICLE.  IF YOU MUST, DON'T READ THE OTHER THING THAT GETS MENTIONED THERE.  IT WILL ONLY FILL YOU WITH DESPAIR AND HORROR.  NO ARTIFICIAL MIRTH OR PRESERVATIVES ARE ADDED.

The article I read had pictures of them.
There was no warning of the pictures, they were just there, at the top of the page.

Even taking into account the fines, the markup on those is incredible.

There needs to be a way to industrialise this process.

It would have to be  either a discrete will-pay-for-abandoned-babies or a literal baby farm.

The farm would be more efficient; feed the "laborers" the bare minimum for the "product"to reach appropriate "ripeness." Could probably get away with two or three thousand in starvation- rich areas.

Actually, I was thinking an arrangement with local abortion providers, then an industrial setting for the finished product and mailing.

Too much risk of turnover fluctuations. Suggest combine with sex slave industry so you have a bordello at the front of the house, full of non-contraceptivated stock. Then you can assure an steady supply of foeti out the back door.

You know who else hated golden babies (http://www.nytimes.com/2005/02/27/books/chapters/0227-1st-short.html?_r=1&pagewanted=print&position=)?  Pol Pot, that's who:

QuoteSâr's earliest memories were coloured by the lore of this nether world. One story that he would retell as an old man was about a dhmap', or wizard, whose mouth, as a punishment for his blasphemy, had been shrunk until it was no bigger than a straw. To feed himself, so the story went, he rolled dough into fine strips, which was how the Cambodian people came to eat noodles. He recalled tales about glutton spirits, which, like the ancient Chinese taotie, had only a head and intestines, and fed on foul things that lived in the mud; and there were gruesome stories of corpse wax, extracted from the newly dead to make potions, and of foetuses ripped by husbands from their wives' bellies and mummified as kun krak, 'smoke-children', familiar spirits with magical powers of protection.

Heh a colleague showed this at work, he expected me and The Elder Misantrope to be shocked. We just shrugged and said something along the line of 'Yep, that's humanity. Sucks to be us.' or something similarly jaded.
I think i will start calling him the Flying Optimist. Flying because he is a former helicopter pilot, apparantly USA flying papers are worthless here.

I've heard about "smoke children".  Wasn't usually the husbands that did it, the way I heard the tale.
