Thank you, thank you all. I'm so excited to have even been nominated! There are so many people to thank that I hope that the orchestra doesn't play me off. Top of the world, ma!

So I say that some researchers are and could be losing funding because of legislation, then I cite prescedent, then you claim that I am suggesting that there is a massive conspiracy? Are you and Ustwo doing a tag team thing now? It's like I can't say anything without people trying to valiently stop me from making another far-fetched conspiracy claim. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, people.

No, what you suggested was that
all scientists working on a problem were deliberately ignoring a potential source of material and that in their hellbent scheme to secure funding for embryonic stem cell research they buried the concept of using umbilical stem cells. Now I was a history major and I'm an insurance guy so I have no idea if that's even viable. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. I'm, as you already put it, just a poster on a message board not a scientist. Maybe Ustwo can tell you, but I'm sure that he's off drinking more water to keep his urine production up to keep pissing in everyone's Cheerios. Again, if you've got evidence that umbilical stem cells can fit the purpose of embryonic ones, I'd love to here it.
Speaking of Ustwo, I'm sure he's as offended as I am at the thought of being tag team partners. Don't make me go all Randy Macho Man Savage on you.
