Perhaps some cells taken from his "stem" may help grow a cute little nose replacement that grows like pinochhio every time he gazes at a young boy.

Doing research in a controversial area is delicate -- you don't want to blow it. But, by picking carefully, you can find places to explore. But even a honking big discovery like this won't be covered by MSM. You'd think they would run all day with a story like this. But I don't see any running here.

For some reason most people refuse to accept stem cells from the donor.
