HI,
Okay, Andreas.
 
What REALLY is going on in Palo Alto??
 
"More part-human chimeras are now in the works or already in lab cages.  
StemCells Inc., of Palo Alto, Calif., has given hundreds of mice human-brain  
stem 
cells, for instance."
 
See:
 
Chimeras exist, what if some turn out too human?
06 May 2005 - If you  had just created a mouse with human brain cells, one 
thing you wouldn't want to  hear the little guy say is, "Hi there, I'm Mickey." 
Even worse, of course, would  be something like, "Get me out of this & pe
rcentGBP !! body!"
