>Okay, actually Karen Kaplan wrote much of it. A news report out of California stresses the fact that the scientists are asking for more new embryos to be used in embryonic stem cell research. So, the State that’s pretty much tied in to embryonic research due to their own votes has more troubles than funding. … Continue reading
I’m late, and not official. But, the 2996 group (the link is not working as I write) is posting information on our fellow humans who were lost when hating men hijacked airplanes to use as weapons against the United States and the world on September 11, 2001.

Here’s a ready answer the next time you hear the talking point that embryonic stem cells were only discovered in 1998, and so we should just get out of the way and let the poor researchers play with their new toy.
