PARENTS CLAMORING FOR CLONED KIDS

PARENTS CLAMORING FOR CLONED KIDS

LAS VEGAS (Wireless Flash) -- A company which is planning to clone a human before the end of the year says response has been overwhelmingly positive. The Las Vegas-based Clonaid company plans to clone a 10- month-old child that died earlier this year, and recently set up a telephone hotline for other parents interested in cloning deceased kids. Spokeswoman Dr. Brigitte Boisseller says response to the hotline shows people have fewer objections to cloning than previously thought. Parents who would like to clone their children need only to preserve a tissue sample from the child -- and cough up the expected $500,000 fee Clonaid plans on charging.
