Theresa i respect your right to your beliefs. i withhold my desired to respond specifically. i do feel that your divisive tirade exemplifies our larger problem in the united states today. stem cell and other issues are being used by both sides in this election year while millions of sufferers and their loved ones want science to move forward in an appropriate way . politicians on both sides take advantage of issues to get elected, how shocking. the wrath expressed in your posting takes me one step closer to leaving this formerly beloved and informative list, sadly. maxine ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
