Stem Cell Research Explained

Insomnia makes PinkDome smarter. Otherwise, we would have never seen the PBS Show on science. A segment on the show, NOVA, explained embryonic stem cell research and cloning. You can watch the segment online (click, 'Watch the segment'). You can take the survey online about your beliefs on stem cell research (click Should we allow cloning for stem cell research). Now, before you click on your answer, PinkDome would suggest you choose the decision opposite from the current belief. Why? Because each step of the survey requires you to read the opposing position before you proceed through the survey. Tricky PBS bastards!

Here's a screencap of the 'talking points' on either side of the arguements for and against embryonic stem cell research.

Using 'stem cell' to search bills addressing embryonic stem cell research, we found 15 House and Senate Bills and Resolutions. It is Phil King's Bill HB 864 that has received the most attention.

HB 864 is still in the State Affairs Committee, and could come back up any day. That means there is still time to phone the members of the State Affairs Committee and direct them to PinkDome for the link to learn more about embryonic stem cell research. If it helps, you can tell them PinkDome is a drunk moron and they even learned something, so it's definitely in a language even Sid Miller could understand!!

House State Affairs Committee:

Chair: Rep. David Swinford (R - Amarillo), 512-463-0470
