People with down syndrome are people! They deserve life! Who in France is so wonderful and perfect that they are better than a child with downs? The IMF chief??

Ya got that right, Yaelle --- and there's no way to predict the course of any child's life. A kid could have a flawless genome reflecting 100 generations of eminnent ancestors, and turn out to be an abusive, arrogant jerk (you did allude to Dominique Strauss-Kahn)

---or a kid could have a Trisomy anomaly like Downs and go on to have a big heart, a loving family, and ---ferheavenssake ---his own TV series! Life Goes On! L'Chaim!
