    Default Cloned human embryos deliver tailored stem cells


    The possibility of growing your own tissue or organs in the lab for transplantation is a step closer following experiments that successfully cloned patient-specific stem cells.

    equals 'spare body parts' for the rich ... and/or the first step toward a two class system where gov't decides which people are worth spending money to keep alive versus which should be allowed to die ! Yesterday's science fiction becomes tommorow's science fact !

    Actually, I'm still hoping for the isolation of 'breast growth' stem cells to take the place of breast implants in the future !

    LOL, give it ten or twenty years. The technology is still young. Your point is taken though, Mel.

    It won't matter. This sort of science will be practiced outside of the US while the rest of us surround sick people with prayer beads.
