The British medical journal, The Lancet, which is no conservative organ, has warned its readers of the hype surrounding stem cell research, especially embryonic stem cell research, according to a dispatch from the Cybercast News Service.

This at a time that California's highways are pot—holed, its schools a mess, and its higher education raising tuition.
