Very good in terms of science, I am impressed. Economy, opposite feelings though.

I'm glad they finally proved what I've been saying about stem cells all along.

1. Like you know anything about it.
2. If stem-cell research got more federal funding, we may have discovered this sooner.

 

Stem cell research was being researched by many different countries around

the world. I really don't think it mattered at all about American government

funding to get quicker results. What is a few months either way?

 

The best research on Stem cell reasearch was in Germany. They actually developed a certain Stem cell treatment for AIDS/HIV.

 

All the stuff Jesus was too busy to do !

 

When I was in my first year of med school MANY years ago, the most brilliant scientists in the world were saying: embryonic no, adult yes. I believed them.

 

Why didn't you write a paper and give the scientific community the benefit of you knowledge ?

 

I was more interested in neurosurgery than stem cells.

 

Now you're a doctor? What else do you want to be when you grow up?

 

So what have you written about neurosurgery ?Do please tell !

 

How do you know she didn't flunk the course ?

 

Please, in the name of god, post some Sh** on the anatomy forum!!!

 

Can I take it that you are aware that many doctors write peer reviewed articles. Here in the UK they publis in the Lancet or the BMJ.

 

I didn't finish. I abandoned my goal of being a neurosurgeon to serve Him. It is MUCH more rewarding.

 

this is the one that caught me by surprise. I know the BBC had a reporter who was circumcised on TV.

This report quoted a Dr. De Cock (funny as hell considering the topic)

 

Yes I have, and I have heard infamous stories about writing them.

 

*phew* I thought you were going to try and tell me that you are a brain surgeon!

 

I don't think you have anything to worry about.
