NO, no teeth, that would lead to alot of back biting.;)

They'll put implants in....

stem cell reseach is a good thing. I wish people would stop referring to it as embryo stems. When they use so called "embryos", they are simply miniscule "embyionic" cells from unfertilized eggs. They are not going to be babies. And there are no pregnant woman out to make a fortune by having an abortion. In fact, if a woman is pregnant, she is of no use.
If I have started a new issue here aside from jaw-breaking news... GOOD!

oh whew! I only kinda know what i am talking about- this could be a new thread but it could be to touchy. i do know that Çhristopher Reeves keeps correcting everyone on the terminology. I do know that Nancy Reagan herself- an anti abortion proponent (how many double negatives is that?) Is for "embryonic cell stem research".
Is this still a hot issue? Or does every one understand that it is not a baby we are killing to save Christopher Reeves or Michael J Fox? Do you know?

I hear Michael J. Fox is doing a lot better with some kind of a new drug he is using.. he can do a lot of things now.. he can play his guitar, he can play basketball, he can write better..
