hmmm... isn't there a way of getting stem cells without harming the fetus? if yes then i'm all for it.

I just can't imagine any fathomable advantages on combining the human genome onto animal cells over using just human cells.

e.g.: sharks don't get cancer; i guess they're thinking that they can transfer that trait to humans somehow.

and my favorite: lizards can regenerate severed limbs; just imagine a human that can regenerate arms and legs. bye bye crutches, bye bye wheelchairs B)

ung nakakatakot for me...no doubt they can bulid "hybrids"...but can they control them or the forces of evolution? what if one day, the animal instincts take over? what happens when a man-shark and woman-lizard bear a child?
