Stem Cell Ban

Hmm... don't really show too much passion, but:

Long story short, a couple of adult stem cell researchers attacked the new NIH rule on embryonic stem cell research and are trying to make it banned (again, I think).


Well, all fine and good, but really, all this time spent in the court, couldn't these two researchers be... you know... doing research instead? That's the only real thing that annoys me. :V If your research is so important, why aren't you doing it? Embryonic stem cell research POTENTIALLY may threaten your research, but at least its not taking a chunk of time out of your lab to spend your days in a court room.
