There was some incredibly significant news on the animal cloning front: Los Angeles Times
A primate embryo was reported cloned.
"Reproductive biologist Shoukhrat Mitalipov of Oregon Health & Science University and his colleagues reported in the online version of the journal Nature that they had successfully cloned rhesus macaque embryos using DNA from skin cells taken from the ear of a 9-year-old male. The resulting stem cells grew into viable heart and nerve cells, among others."
When does nuclear DNA stop being unique? Organelle DNA?
One step closer to a race of women: hee hee hee! ;-)

Compared to my home country, Switzerland, it sees cloning animal cells is easier in the United Stades. I wonder where the line is drawn in your country?
