Cord Blood Cures?

Apparently, stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood have been used to heal a two decade old spinal cord injury in South Korea. I'm pretty skeptical at this point because there is only this one reported case but I am also hopeful. If this holds up we'll have yet another case of non-embryonic stem cells proving to be therapeutically useful.

I hope that we will find enough cures and treatments using non-embryonic stem cells that people will stop fixating on embryonic stem cells. I suspect, however, that at least some people will continue to push the embryonic stem cell issue nonetheless. With any luck that (rather small) contingent of people will be exposed as the frauds they are and people will finally see their true (and quite ulterior) motives.
