Hi, since I don't have your e-mail, this is the best way for me to send you a message. I was wondering if you saw that article in the news about scientists cloning babies specifically for harvesting stem cells. Apparently they just did 5 for this reason, and seeing as the chances of getting an embryo to start to develope is one outta a thousand or something, that means that they tried a number of times and destroyed the rejects probably (do not take me as the final word here, I'm speculating). I can't find any references for it at the moment, but thought that you might want to know since this is a very disturbing occurrence.

And of course, TROUSERED APES was the title of a book by Duncan Williamson.

Williamson gives a priceless account of a college speaking engagement where a bright young thing told him, with a straight face: "You're advocating censorship. You shouldn't be allowed to publish it."
