Stem Cell Bill Passes in Australia 253
nickd writes "Having recently being passed in the Senate by only 2 votes, an Australian bill to overturn the ban on 'theraputic cloning' has now been passed in the House of Representatives by 82-62. The amendment that was seeking to prevent stem cells being extracted from the eggs of aborted late term female fetuses has also been voted down. The changes will allow scientists to create and use embryos up to 14 days old for research."

The article failed to mention that after 14 days they will be used to create a Shaky's Pizza for each scientist!

No, they would have called them "possible future Einsteins and Ghandis." Although I always get a laugh out of that one since they avoid the "possible future Idi Amins and Stalins," too. Look, mah, no Godwin!
