''It allows us to manipulate every part of the human genome that we want,'' Zwaka, a German-born medical doctor and molecular biologist, said in a telephone interview.

I don't know about you, but this sentence sent a shiver down my spine.

I only hope we have the collective wisdom to understand what we are dealing with here.

While bills to ban it are bottled up in the Senate, research and breakthroughs will continue. I'm beggining to feel confident that those opposed to this important life-saving technology will fail to stop it, even with the President's aid. The Brownback Bill seems dead to me. And individual states like Calif and NJ are moving ahead on their own. I think the train has left the station and will be almost impossible to stop. Thanks for posting that. Very good news.

"the cells that die in type-I diabetes"

When? How soon?

We keep telling our 7 yr old son they'll cure it before he's 20. Be great if it was sooner rather than later.
