Dick, Joao Paulo and others, Uh Oh- Do you think they will go after repeal of the law of gravity? If it is repealed what will keep us on the ground. :-) This is precisely the kind of thinking which attempts to block stem cell research etc. It will serve the people of the farm state Kansas to refuse to teach their kids about Darwin and genetics .(sarcastic sneer) Won't that help us compete in the world markets. Joao Paulo, at this rate with our country (US) moving in this direction Brazil and most of the rest of the world should pass the U.S. in biotechnology in a few years.
