Well, they, and not me, are the people who have been trained in the field of cell culture manipulation and who do it for a living. According to them, within the existing cell culture methodology embryonic cells are clearly superior to all the others. I do not have 10 years to spend on becoming a PhD level cell biologist myself, and even if by some magic wand I got the skills and knowledge in 5 seconds, who knows how long would it take me to design alternative and better methodology? The progress, if and when it happens, is normally incremental. Whenever there are claims to more than incremental success, these are ipso facto suspect [like that Korean guy's - Hwang(?) somebody, forgot his full name].

Well, you don't need a PHD to type in "stem cell" in Google. It takes about 10 minutes to find there is nothing but failure in embryonic stem cells( cancers and painfull death) and great strides made in adult stem cells. The reason for the embryonic stem cell mania is nothing more than baby killers trying to justify their murders. They have spent billions trying to manipulate embryonic cells to do something, anything, but to absolutely no avail. Adult stem cells have already found many successes with a fraction of the research money. Why keep spending millions on a dead end?.........POLITICS of MURDER!
