I cling to the notion that Google is not the sole source of information 
in the universe. For example, I read newspapers. There are no 
restrictions on private stem cell research, embryonic or otherwise, in 
the United States. This is a contrast with the Bible-thumping lands of 
Austria, Denmark, Germany, Spain, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, 
Netherlands, and Portugal, which outlaw the creation of human embryos 
for research of any sort including the harvesting of stem cells.

Damn those continental church-going Charlies.
