Lab grown teeth

Scientists have found a gene that allows them to grow tooth enamel in the Lab.  Coupled with the ability, already available, to grow the insides of teeth we have the capability to grow replacement teeth.  Read here.

This sounds like something that could have more applications than just to rebuild and replace teeth which even by itself is going to be a boom for all those with sweet teeth.   I understand enamel is strong and robust against most things, acids excluded.  It will be interesting to see what uses this will be put to by our brightest scientists.

Suspicious?

Probably not but this is what starts conspiracy theories.

It seems that the satellite being put up to monitor CO2 levels has been lost on launch. Read here.

Funny that.  It seems that, for the foreseeable future and probably for the duration of the recession, we will just have to rely on the alarmist theories and doctored figures.   So let’s not cancel these CO2 taxes.

It’s for the planet.
