Oh sure, Sue. There are serendipitous findings and pure inspiration but
what is being described is one milestone in a lengthy research program. The
importance of the experimental results is being vastly overblown IMO.

Understand it is yet an unproven technology. Managing to cause remission of
tumors in identical research mice is a far cry from doing the same in
humans. It has all been done before but perhaps - perhaps - not with the
same success ratio.

Are you certain?

Certainly there is that.

True. We all stand on the shoulders of giants.
