MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. - "Superman" actor Christopher Reeve, who turned personal tragedy into a public crusade and from his wheelchair became the nation's most recognizable spokesman for spinal cord research, has died. He was 52.

Mayur is an unknown quantity at this point
Nice sig. It is sad that he died. I liked that first Superman movie with the helicopter scene.

Christopher Reeve said to CNN about George Bush delaying stem cell research:

Quote:
"That would be a big mistake because you could spend the next five years doing research on the adult stem cells and find that they are not capable of doing what we know that embryonic cells can do now," he said. "And five years of unnecessary research to try to create something that we already have would cause -- well, a lot of people are going to die while we wait."
I think this is something Americans should consider for November.

I hope they do consider that. I have Multiple Sclerosis and even though I've had it easy (with ups and downs, of course), stem cells could be the key to recovery for most people with dissabilities caused by MS. And so many other diseases ...
