Spares, one step closer...

MJ Marshall wrote a very good book called Spares, about the cloning of humans for spare parts purposes.

Eep?

 

[Summo]

I dunno... they're cloning organs and the like which aren't rejected by the hosts. Seems fine to me, but maybe I'm using too much common sense.

Surely organ transplants are nothing new and always carry a risk of rejection. Where do you draw the moral line?

This is undoubtedly the future of medicine. Why are we delaying it over issues we don't yet seem to be able to grasp from a moral perspective?

I could go on but its 3:20am, ffs.

i want a pussy

A silly question really, but, perp do you need a new pancreas because you are diabetic or because you drink too much? I ask because me dads pancreas is borked because he's an alcholic, so he is now a diabetic.

 

[Perplex]

The reason his pancreas borked was because alcohol has *a lot* of sugar in it. You can become diabetic from just eating too many sweet things.

I'm a diet controlled diabetic

I preferred the plot from Coma

I tried reading Coma once (the Robin Cook one right?), and it didn't grip me at all, so I gave up about halfway through.
