Absolutely wild:
SCIENTISTS have created “miracle mice” that can regenerate amputated limbs or damaged vital organs, making them able to recover from injuries that would kill or permanently disable normal animals.
The experimental animals are unique among mammals in their ability to regrow their heart, toes, joints and tail.
And when cells from the test mouse are injected into ordinary mice, they too acquire the ability to regenerate, the US-based researchers say.
Their discoveries raise the prospect that humans could one day be given the ability to regenerate lost or damaged organs, opening up a new era in medicine.
[...] “It is quite remarkable. The only organ that did not grow back was the brain.
“When we injected fetal liver cells taken from those animals into ordinary mice, they too gained the power of regeneration. We found this persisted even six months after the injection.”
This seems like huge news.

OH NO! Just like in the Omega Code! Or some such, I wonder what ChrisTV is saying about this, but I havn’t the will to walk to the tv and turn it on. Probably something about the Antichrist getting hit in the head and staying alive, I know a while back they talked about the possibility of the Antichrist cloning himself, now he’ll just regenerate his wounds. Jack Van Impe might have something to say about it.
Well, I didn’t find the article on maybe they didn’t see it.

Oh yeah I know all about Jack Van Impe, well, all you could know from watching his infomercial on tv. I want to see his movie, but I refuse to fuel that guy’s work financially
