That's quite the money they're putting into research! If they'd do this everywhere, I think the cure would be near.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California's government-run stem-cell research agency, on course to spend $3 billion in taxpayer money to find treatments for some of the world's most intractable diseases, is pushing to accelerate human testing before its financing runs out.

For the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, time is growing short to fund research that demonstrates the potential of stem cells to help treat everything from cancer to heart disease to spinal cord injuries.

I hope something good comes out of this, but I don't think it will be in my lifetime
	Just do it

I wonder how the same people arguing against stem cell research would feel if they were in our position! Thanks for sharing tbone57, that's excellent!
