LOL.. Looks like something Buffalo Bill http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x81F28kPXuo would have concocted.

Totally lame as art. Again shows that science and art are mutually exclusive in a general sense. Stick to your usual lab work, my boys.

Hah!

Keep at it and when you get a complete working human heart, call me I need one desperately Thank You for your interesting pursuits, and Thank God for your lives. The more you find out the better off all of mankind! This is an area that needs lots of funding. Maybe one day you will grow a “coat” for a burn victim! Trying for artificial fingers, ears and other appendages might prove interesting too! Meanwhile, about a set of seamless seats for my Porsche?

Creating ‘beings’? It’s a cell-tissue culture, no more a ‘being’ than your blood donation is. I have no issue with people finding it distasteful, by any means, however taste is a subjective quality. Some find raising an animal from birth and then killing it for fashion to be distasteful.

The issue is obviously a contentious one that requires fair and open discussion. Yet throwing in a mix of misinformation and hyperbole is the fastest way to unbalance any discourse on the matter.

I dont think that it will ever be on the market (maybe on ebay)
cause live tissue makes fluids and you just dont want to ware it when it has some body fluids on it. This project is more like a messege to killing animals.
personally i think thats repulsive and the creator should play SPORE and every thing will be much clearer to him.

That first comment was brutal. Don’t write out your thought processes, Adam H Klein. Think first, then comment.

How much is the coat in the window?

A question almost as repulsive as the coat in the window.
