Excellent. But I thought that only embryonic stem cells could cure something like this! Michael Fox, the MSM, and the Democrats said so!

If this works, it is wonderful news.

I hope no moron jumps me for asking an honest question, though:

"Cystic fibrosis is one of the most common serious genetic disorders, affecting around one in every 3,300 Caucasians as well as other groups."

Is the number really one in 3,300 Caucasians as well as others? That's like reading that the number of babies born with cleft palates is one in 500. Who collects these numbers?

I happened to have lunch with one of their scientists at Bio 2004.

I thought this was a way kewl approach, and from what he said we ain't seen nuthin' yet!

It's great to hear that the trials are going well.
