Psychiclone
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: sy kik klone
Sentence: Roger had gotten his grant to further study the likelihood of mass-cloning an individual.

They had bought it and now only he knew how to achieve this miracle. He got busy and psychicloned one hundred new clones. The only trouble was that the one he psychicloned was himself and then he immediately disappeared, so that the authorities never knew which one to arrest...Bring on the clones!
