RE: Untitled
It's not nearly as spectacular as some of you are making it out to be. How many of you actually read the full article? We're not talking "Island of Dr. Moreau" here, we're talking human cells in an animal in hopes of growing organs, testing how things work, etc.. etc.
Don't make it sound like Palidium's "TMNT", it's hardly that amazing o.o
By their definition, a human that recieves an organ grown in an animal is a chimera… that's a pretty loose definition. I guess that makes a person with a pacemaker a cyborg.
I guess it comes down to who's life is more important, human or animal. Personally, while I'm not a supporter of cruelty to animals in the name of science, I do respect some concessions need to be made in order to improve human life. Those of you criticizing it... will you be so eager to shoot it down when you find yourself in need of an organ, but with no one available to donate?
Now, maybe one day, it will come down to full cloning, genetic animal/human hybrids, cyborgs, robots... everything you know from science fiction... it's all possible in time. But this is NOT the start of "Planet of the Apes".
Thank you for your time.
And if you want something genetic-based that's freaky, look here:

Play nice, or I'll put you both in corners. =P
I learned today that my chances of getting a day off that I want are about as likely as a snowball lasting a day on the beach in Jamaica. As it stands, I'll be lucky if I can even take the days I'm SUPPOSED to have, AND I was chastized for not scheduling them last July.. like I'm somehow psychic and knew when I'd want to take every day off. Pfft.
I have to schedule my weeks on Monday, other than that, I have no clue.
