More good news from Obama

This really warms my heart: It seems Obama's finally going to ease Bush's bizarre restrictions on public funding for stem cell research. Private money has only been able to go so far, but there's reason to hope that with government backing in the form of the powerful NIH (National Institute of Health), we might finally see the revolutionary advances in curing diseases like Alzheimer's and Diabetes that we've been long promised. And on a deeper note, I'm deeply relieved to see an administration that not only seperates politics from science, but also seems to actively side with science on the never-ending war between science and organized religion.
