The Technology of Law
One can discern the following relationships between the Law and Technology:
1. Sometimes technology becomes an inseparable part of the law. In extreme cases, technology itself becomes the law. The use of polygraphs, faxes, telephones, video, audio and computers is an integral part of many laws - etched into them. It is not an artificial co-habitation: the technology is precisely defined in the law and forms a CONDITION within it. In other words: the very spirit and letter of the law is violated (the law is broken) if a certain technology is not employed or not put to correct use. Think ...

Wis. Researchers Lobby Senate on Stem Cell Research
WASHINGTON -- The science of stem cell research got its start at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Now, university researchers are appealing to the Senate to lift federal restrictions they say are hampering their effort to develop stem cell therapies for deadly diseases and crippling injuries.
Public views on stem cell research
Bob sends me polls (like this) on whether the public supports stem cell research. Every poll I've seen shows Pres. Bush's position squarely in the majority. He does not need to change it for any political reason. For example, the above poll says that "57% favor federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. So does Pres. Bush. It was Bush who took the initiative in that funding. Bob also sent a Harris poll (from the WSJ, not freely online) that asked: ** Do you think this research [on stem cells from leftover embryos] should or should not be allowed? ** 74% said yes, and agreed with USA law and Bush policy. Such research is indeed allowed under USA law. (I believe that some countries don't allow it.)
Morals, Ethics and Philosophy :: RE: Congressional debate on stem-cell research
Frank Pierce wrote: Actually, Connie, we shouldn't make more of the present ban than it is. We don't have a law forbidding stem cell research in the US, only for government funding for it - minus a few insignificant exceptions. There's plenty of stem cell research going on. California is sponsoring it in very effective ways, both with state funding and tax breaks for biotech firms. But we need it on a national level. Frank

Thomas Jefferson and the Chinese Gong
While Richard Nixon’s diplomatic visit to China may have created a minor thaw in Sino-US relations, he was not the first President to try to get in sync with the Chinese. Thomas Jefferson preceded him by close to two centuries. Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States, happened to be (in contrast to the current US President) an intelligent man, amazing inventor and, as DNA tests have shown, most likely a randy advocate of miscegenation. We now may envision that when the Continental Congress celebrated Thanksgiving together, which type of meat – light or dark - Jeffer ...
