This is really interesting. It's "arthritis", rather than "inflammation in a single leg that is responding well to steroids".
PPL gets scooped my U. Missouri, and then issues their tacky announcement one day before the peer review release of the Missouri/BTRN/Novartis results. And now Wilmut is bad-mouthing cloning??
He got scooped.
He hasn't gotten funding for the PPL spinout........

Other Edinburgh scientists are working with SCS Pty Ltd., and they've gotten key patents issued.
``But this provides one more piece of evidence that unfortunately the present cloning procedures are rather inefficient.''
Bullshit, Dr. Wilmut! I want to meet the sort of scientist, face-to-face, who would make an outrageous statement like that. It's a single inflamed leg in the only animal that you have to observe. I don't know of a single scientist who would call that "evidence".
``But this provides one more piece of evidence that unfortunately the present cloning procedures are rather inefficient.''
Fact: ........, you, Dr. Wilmut, have a 5 1/2 year old sheep that appears to be normal in every way except for inflammation in a single leg that is responding to steroids.
What happened, Dr. Wilmut? You get scooped? You got your whopping price appreciation for PPL by giving your "first announcement", tacky man. And then, two days after the tacky announcement, cloning is suddenly fraught with perils because of an inflamed leg? |
