Feb. 12, 2004 | WASHINGTON (AP) -- Researchers in South Korea have become the first to successfully clone a human embryo, and then cull from it master stem cells that many doctors consider key to one day creating customized cures for diabetes, Parkinson's and other diseases.
Bad news first: every other developed country will probably beat the U.S. in discovering and "productizing" theraputic cloning, because of the intense outcry in this country from the religious right.
The good news? We won't lose those jobs to outsourcing, since we won't have them to begin with!
