VIcky,

Thanks for the post, patents are one of the next areas that I'd like to learn more about. I think I already posted that I ran into a college friend at BIOS who worked in the Govt. Patent Office for twenty-five years or so and just recently moved to a private law firm specializing in intellectual property.

Those types of coincidental, freaky reinforcements can inspire one for months.

Greg - I know a lot of people have worked very hard to get to this point with stem cells and I don't want to offend them. But you are not alone in wondering about why we even bother.

Our congressional leaders are just playing volleyball. Taking credit where it's convenient and dishing out blame when it isn't.
