Stem Cell Update

Looks like liberals might be on the wrong side...again. This time it's stem cells:

Griffith University's Alan Mackay-Sim yesterday published the results of a four-year project that succeeded in growing adult stem cells harvested from the nose.

The cells appear to be able to deliver everything that embryonic stem cell research promises, but without the medical and ethical side-effects.
...
[S]enator Ron Boswell, leader of the Nationals in the [Australian] Senate, said the giant leap forward made by the research proved that adult stem cell research, not embryonic research, was the way of the future.

"This new adult cell technology now puts them way ahead of embryo stem cell research," Senator Boswell said.

"Science has spoken loud and clear and come out on the side of adult stem cells."

How 'bout that...
