I would like to mention one other thing, not JUST to you , but seems as good a place to post as any. I see you are very concerned that medical research, even if it is at the expense of other life, is very important. You seem to have compassion for those suffering or in need of medical help.

How many people in these United States feel as you do? I really wonder?

With that in mind check out these stats!!!!

optn.org

In 2000 there were:

11,609 living and cadaveric organ donors;(over 5000 living)
22,853 lifesaving organ transplants;
79,346 registrations on the waiting list at the end of the year; and
5,508 people who died while waiting.


How many people would you say live in the USA? Even allowing for the folks that cannot be organ donors for whatever reason, those stats are miserable.
