Mark sounds a little testy tonight.
Good evening Fudd...Thanks for the ping!
Mark said cloning scares the hell out of him, as it should all of us.
Oh, that's my porely implied point.
There are plenty of EXISTING cell lines for use, and part of the bitch is that they need to produce more and new lines.
Bull. Another b.s. power grab, like global warming. Invent a totally bogus problem and then later you can easily claim to have overcome it.
Yep. Bad science for evil reasons.
That is a cheese-cake? OMGosh.
Is your husband a Vietnam Vet?
Good evening Hun!
My brother works in Cali. re: tissue assays.
Every time you hear that it is for the "children", the "elederly", the "handicapped", the "poor" -- watch your wallet!!
This is all about the money!! Everyone gets into the moral fight and forgets that it is all about the Goverment funding!!
Most biotech companies work for profit, capitalism. They do not need or want government money.
EXACTLY, acsrp.
The demrats want in on the control of the business (profit).
Stem Cell Central?
With its concentration of scientific know-how, San Diego looks to become world headquarters for stem cell research

This is mainly adult steem cell but nips the thinking that the libs have that real research isn't going on and their version is the way.
Believe it or not, many men are going to court re: abortion now.
GREETINGS!
HEH! :D
Adult islet cell transplants have already allowed hundreds of juvenile diabetes patients to throw away their insulin needles, and even newer approaches, which do NOT use embryonic stem cells may be in human trials soon. For an overview see: www.stemcellresearch.org/facts/factsheet-04-03-02.htm.
In one new approach pioneered by Harvard researchers, injections of certain cells from the spleen have re-trained diabetic animals immune systems to stop attacking their own pancreatic cells, after which new insulin-producing cells can regenerate spontaneously.2
Adult stem cells have shown repeated success at forming true insulin-producing islets, and have successfully reversed diabetes in animals. Embryonic stem cells have shown no success.

Hiya cyborg! How have you been?
I worry that no American children are going into the Health Sciences. The average child growing up today has no knowledge of the various fields that a person can be so valuable. Therer is more to health science than being a Doctor or nurse.
