"It worked! I have two Shakey's Pizzas!"

The awful (or, for those of us with foreign passports and places to go, vaguely interesting in a car-crash-witness way) price the US will pay for indulging in its more theocratic instincts for another decade or so will not stop at Michael Powell's swollen neckline.

In 10 years, the US will be #4 or 5 in scientific prestige and advancements, and that's if we count by region, not even nation by nation. Currently, Brazil has a more progressive, aggressive, and advanced biogenetics program than the US. Brazil. Tin shacks. Death squads. Brazil, people.

Some stem cell stories to remind us of how, you know, useless the research is. Just like the President says.

Well, I guess if you call curing the FRIKKIN' BLIND progress ...

No, I don't wet myself anymore, why?
Multiple Sclerosis, perhaps you've heard of it?
No, it's not a cure for cancer. you just live twice as long. Bah.
Maybe God wants this kid dead, ever think of that, Mister Science Guy?
But this technology could save Dick Cheney. That's gotta be worth something!

Man, we're apparently on the same wavelength. I just blogged about this yesterday. I wrote over there about my step-father. He suffered a spinal cord injury in a freak fall in April and was initially paralyzed from the neck down. He's since made tons of progress (he's walking with canes), but the docs have no idea how far he'll progress. I truly believe that stem cell research could help. I'm going to link to your entry - you've more links than I.

Thanks for passing along the meme!
