Dear friends. We live in momentous times. The promise of biotechnology is finally starting to yield some practical results. Some IMPORTANT results.

They’ve now grown tiny little bits of human liver in the lab.

Sure, there are some doubts. They’re just little tiny liver cells. It’s not a whole liver yet.

But I hold out great hope that we’ll all survive to see the dream brought to fruition.

So feel free to drink up and celebrate. As for me, I have a keg to somehow drain…

(PS: We recently passed a milestone. Our anti-comment-spam filter has now filtered away more comments than we have legitimate comments. That said, a few get through the filter here and there. They’re pretty obvious. Other ones, I can’t understand. You tell me — is this comment spam??)
