I know this was on Fang's Blog - Fly On a while ago but I heard about it again today so I thought I should blog about it to remind everyone about it.
Scientists in England have been granted permission to put animal DNA into donated human eggs. I looked up human-animal hybrids on Wikipedia. Here's an extract from it :
"The scientists said the hybrid human-bovine embryos could prove useful in pursuing treatments to prevent Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's, as well as spinal cord injuries, diabetes and arthritis. Instead of using human eggs, the researchers will remove the nuclei from cows' eggs and replace them with cells from the patients to create cloned stem cell lines that contain the same genetic mutation that results in these neurological disorders.
Minger cited the short supply of human eggs left over from in vitro fertilization, which have been used for stem cell research but have to be acquired through surgery on the women. "The hybrid embryo would be 99.9 percent human. The only bovine element would be found in DNA outside the nucleus of the cell."
I think this is disgusting ! We should do something to stop this and make people aware. We should make posters, inform the press, give talks in school, make films about it, ANYTHING !!! We must do something people ! This is not good news. And if you think you can get wings and fly all around the place like Maximum Ride (sorry to burst your bubble but) you can't.
Please do something to help. Please comment on my blog if you have any other ideas.
Fly on forever !

Ya, I reasearched it a while ago and I found that out. Wild, huh!
I think it's cool! Area 51 is supposidly an airforce bace where the government are making super weapons, including planes. That was on discovery, it's a theory of some investigator.
