CHICAGO TRIBUNE Backs Off Advanced Cell Technology Story
Now the Chicago Tribune is backing off the story of the big embryonic stem cell research breakthrough that wasn't. And get this: Advanced Cell Technology's "ethicist," Ronald Green, who told the Washington Post, "You can honestly say this cell line is from an embryo that was in no way harmed or destroyed," a flat-out false statement, now tells the Tribune, "The approach does not harm embryos; the experiment did."
Ha! That's hugely different from what he said earlier. Moreover, the "approach" has not yet been done.
Maybe next time, Advanced Cell Technology breaks into the news, the MSM will learn not to trust the company's hype or Ronald Green's dissembling. But don't hold your breath.

I know this off Topic;
As you well know Michael Schiavo is still making waves in great Terri Schiavo saga. I just wanted to point out a few things about it.
I was strong supporter in Terri's right to life. To this day I still follow the saga very closely. Its a little hobby of mine.
I reguarly posts my thoughts and insights on the Schiavo saga on the AOL message board:

I constantly fend off Michael Schiavo trolls. I invite you to view it.
Just recently I posted the story of Marjorie Nighbert.
Some on the board seem to think this story is an urban myth but I really believe it happend.
I also invite you to view these other sites as well if you want to stay informed of continuing developments in the Schiavo saga:

Thanks, James. I will let this message stand in case anybody wants to check it out. But I don't want to turn this into a Schiavo argument. Thanks, all.
