3D printers have the potential to change lives the way the personal computer did. Very exciting stuff.
SSYS and DDD are two of the big players.

The ability to have a replacement organ printed, and not have to take pills to avoid rejection, is nothing sort of civilization changing.

So, are these livers to be made from clones of ones own cells?

With the criminal restructuring of the entire health care/insurance industry, the only ones who will be able to afford replacement parts will be the George Soros’s of the world. Then let’s see how we all like virtual immortality. Imagine a 900 year old Hitler.

I wonder is this company is making a promise it won’t be able to keep.

Exciting beyond belief! The question, of course, is whether the new organs will be received only by government officials (who have their prescriptions brought to their desks!) or whether we’ll overthrow government health care and actually permit this for average human beings, that is, American citizens who are not privileged to be either government employees or welfare recipients.
