Unfortunately I don't think this is as huge a breakthrough as the
public relation people at Advanced Cell Technology would have
you believe. In fact it seems a bit of a flop. When they tried true
cloning they only got to 6 cells and then it died, when they tried
another technique, parthenogenesis, (not really cloning at all)
they still couldn't keep "the embryo" living past 100. Neither
method produced stem cells and that's what they were trying to do.
