thoughts: the idea of cloning organs, and humans is in theory very attractive for some and a rather promising idea... yes to an extent....but surely inherent in us, our flaws (be it biological/physical/mental?!) expressed in part through our genetic make-up must also get cloned in the process....(13th Feb 2004)

Hi There Over A Cuppa

Barnaby here - Van Heng's ex-colleague. Sat on the same table as you at her wedding.

Great weblog!

Can you increase the font size - it seems to have suddenly shrunk to a size that the eye can't see!
