Dear Maxine, Just read your report on your trip to N.Y. and your attendance at the MJF annual fundraiser. I had just seen the television interview they did with Michael...I think it was on "First Edition." Then...your e-mail popped up on the forum. You DO sound excited about what you've learned at the scientific briefings! That excitement is rubbing off on me and I hope that you will find time to pass on some of the details after you've had a chance to rest and regroup. I am in the process of writing my email to Bernard Siegel so that it can be passed on to the diplomats of the United Nations supporting the resolution to permit each nation to determine their own laws and policies regarding therapeutic cloning (This will be coming to vote, once again, on Friday Nov 19). Your message has encouraged me to keep up my little part in the effort to keep these research pathways open.
