It is, however, at this moment, speculative. I am completely in favour of stem cell research. There should be as few barriers as possible to it. However, I was a victim of 'Tomorrows World', and promises should be taken with a pinch of salt. If it succeeds in alieviating either MS or MND then it is worth it. Just saying about the hype. Believe it when you see it. Dave,

You're surely not planning to live off the fruits of capitalist exploitation? For most people not on a final salary scheme - ie most people not in the public sector -an extra 20-40 years of life will mean an extra 20-40 years of work! Now that would be an interesting conflict: public sector retires at 60; private at 100. Though I am in favour of the bill... What is the Workers’ Weekly line on final salary pension schemes?!
