Suicide Hotline Link The Buffalo one was busy...*sigh*....story of my life.

Most egregiously bogus.

I'm all for running Bush out of office and saving the environment, but this thread blows.

If you got rid of all the Pats, Sox, Bruins and Celts "fans" Mass wouldn't be so bad.

Pabst Blue Ribbon is 5%. If I drink two ice cold PBRs, that's like 10% alcohol, man. If I drink all six, that's like....whoa!! That's totally awesome!!!!

I hope it dies.

I suppress it by sniffing cheap magic markers.

It's been over four hours since you posted the link. I don't think anyone agrees with you Joe.

It's funny because I don't know any of them personally.

Did it take out any Boyscouts?

I just don't see how "noodling" around playing scales when you are stoned makes for good music. The Ramones have whole LPs shorter than Dead songs. To each his own, I guess.

I am not a fan.

Why? The whole thing, or specific centers? FDA home page

So, what you are saying is you are against federal funding for the National Institute of Health, the Centers for Disease Control, and the Food and Drug Administration, all “centralized government” programs (they all fall under the Department of Health and Human Services)? Sorry, I just don’t see where you’re coming from on this. I’m shocked that someone would suggest that these programs are a frivolous waste of taxpayer money.

You are correct. It was a ban on using newly derived human embryonic stem cell lines. Federal money could/can be used for adult stem cell research, stem cells retrieved from umbilical cords, and existing lines of human embryonic stem cells. The issue with the human embryonic stem cell lines that were in existence at the time of the ban was that some of the lines weren't very robust, some had right-to-use issues, and the majority would never be useful for human therapy because of how they were derived and maintained (the medium used in tissue culture does not exclusively contain human "stuff", to put it into layman's terms). So, in a sense, Todd is right as well. There is an indirect ban on research that would result in a human therapy. These cell lines will never be allowed into human trials.

In the strictest sense of the word, yes.

Huzzah! Huzzah!

20 grand. Wow! How often do you change the oil in that thing?
