The author misses the point. The point isn't the obvious genetic humanity of a fetus. It is whether the fetus has the ethical status as a person that obligates us to protect it from being aborted. No ultrasound tells us that. This is just a species of the animal rights activists' argument - it's warm and fuzzy and cute and look it has feelings too. Cows are warm and fuzzy and taste good, and we don't accord it ethical status beyond deserving of not being cruelly treated before we cover it in A-1 and dig in. Derek
