| Hey, did everybody see the new article about sperm cells being equally good providers of stem cells as embryonic cells? The triumph of the alphas, do you think? |

I did see that, dick, in this morning's paper. Power to the men once again. (And maybe it will help take experimentation away from the embryos!) |

Aren't umbilical cords also supposed to be rich in stem cells?  _________________ "To be in a romance is to be in uncongenial surroundings. To be born into this earth is to be born into uncongenial surroundings, hence to be born into a romance." (G.K. Chesterton) |

Hee-hee, dick. And a virtually endless supply of "the other."
In actual, little-known fact, so far, there have been no effective therapies using embryonic stem cells ... and more than 75 effective therapies developed using adult stem cells. Maybe we should rethink and refocus our energies.
