I guess my basic point is this....President Obama lifted the ban on funding on human embryonic stem cell research back in March I believe it was. From articles I've read, even though that ban was lifted, no federal funding has reached the researchers which has obviously slowed their progress. There was supposed to be 8.2 billion dollars made available for this. Now the researchers are having to rely on private funding and whatever grants they can find. Anything we can do as a nation of people, to help that situation out, certainly can't hurt. ________________________________ From: Jim Lubin <jlu...@eskimo.com> To: kevin weilacher <hwyfli...@yahoo.com>; TMIC-LIST@eskimo.com Sent: Friday, September 18, 2009 5:47:43 PM Subject: Re: [TMIC] Who else knew this about Gunny..?

Currently, it seems that the only way anything is going to get done is if we, ourselves takes this bull by the horns and do something for ourselves. That's because there never has been a ban on stem cell research. He lifted the ban on federal funding of stem cells from human embryonic sources. ---- Jim Lubin jlu...@eskimo.com http://makoa.org/jim disAbility Resources:http://www.makoa.org
