...problem, as with every recent stem-cell advance so far, is that the principle and the practice are still awfully far apart. No one doubts that the scientists created cloned embryos - largely because they documented their techniques so carefully and performed confirming tests, but also because they aren't the first to have made clones (British scientists did it two years...
...scientific sense," admits John Bancroft, emeritus director of the Kinsey Institute in Bloomington, Ind., a place where they know a thing or two about the way human beings pair up. But that limited understanding is expanding. The more scientists look, the more they're able to tease romance apart into its individual strands-the visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile, neurochemical processes that make it possible.

I was a security blanket if he decided, here's something I want to do that was apart from what the people who were financing it read, apart from whatever the norm was or was going to be. He'd say I think this guy should do this. I'd go, 'do it.' I was protective of him, so he could get away with the things he wanted...
