Stem Cell Breakthrough

I’m generally a bit wary of science stories in newspapers, but this one sounds like very good news. According to The Guardian, scientists from Edinburgh and Toronto universities have developed a means of making stem cells without destroying embryos. Doubtless there will be some fundies who will continue to oppose any research simply because it is science, but most of the opposition to stem cell work should now melt away.

Um, assuming that the report is accurate. Anyone an expert on this stuff?
