========= Why is it "preaching"? Nathan is right, people do need to confront the US duopoly and if it takes strategic actions, so be it. Many are doing it against enormous odds. At the same time Nathan and Justin should hopefully realize that this is about more than legalities or even liberties. In a very serious way it is about science fighting for "the right" to ask deep and potentially disturbing questions about the human body.
