- I just saw a brief part of a show on a researcher who has been
- transplanting the bodies of primates and apparently is now in a
- position to attempt to do so with humans -- or so he believes.
- His claim is that it is actually more difficult to transplant
- limbs than it is an entire body. Why this would be so or whether
- this guy is off in left field I don't know. But the show was on
- public broadcasting and delved into the ethical issues quite
- extensively. The researcher is a devout Catholic.
