From the article:
"News Flash After 20 years of research, embryonic stem cells haven't cured a single lab rat. They haven't been used to treat people because the cells are unproven and unsafe. They tend to produce tumors, cause transplant rejection and form the wrong kinds of cells.
By stark contrast, adult stem cells have treated over 58 diseases in human patients in published clinical studies. Some of the most startling advancements have come in treating Parkinson's disease, juvenile diabetes, and spinal cord injuries. That's right Christopher Reeves fans, people treated with adult stem cells are regaining the use of their legs."
True, but I would distinguish the two situations. An uprooted acorn is not an oak tree.
