You are aware that there are thousands of cryogenically stored fetuses 
that are routinely destroyed every year when they aren't used after 
invetro fertilization? Any of these could be used in research, rather 
then just becoming medical waste. Oh and why exactly is it Ok for a 
woman to get an abortion, but then not be allowed to donate/sell the 
resulting material for scientific research? I believe that the placenta 
can also be used for this research, rather then just being disposed of 
after normal deliveries.
