Well, thanks, I appreciate that. Work has been a bit quiet and I realised I would love to be involved here again, and maybe write a few new articles (posted one today already!!!)

Hi!
It appears we both had a "I've not looked at CP in years" moment.
It's almost two years now since we packed up the house into a shipping container and moved to The Netherlands and it's been a big adventure. I'm guessing you're still lying low on facebook after the drama?

Playing around with rPI's, learning more about Linux (and liking it, go figure), 5 months into the new job[^] and loving it (whereas the old job I was hating), winning at poker (Texas Holdem), losing at poker, and wasting time watching Merlin[^]

I would suspect that there would be no rejection problems, either.

i want something aftermarket
i think a tail would be productive.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

It's all fine and dandy until the printer runs out of ink, err, um, tissue?

Quote: The resulting heart is made up of extremely “young” cells, and researchers are now working on a method to “grow” a mature heart.
err, if my heart's worn out why would I replace it with another worn out version? I want the new and shiny one that'll give me another 80+ years.
...hmmm, suddenly I've got a hankering for fresh nuts.

Oh fer...
"Researchers Succeed in 3-D Printing an Artificial" whatever?
Really?
And what, exactly, is it that's printed on man-made printers that is not "artificial"?
I wish that the 1,073,538,964 Interwebs news sites would considering using writers contributors who know anything at all about the English language!

As I understood the article, it was printed with thread derived from human* (fat cells) tissue that was convertible to stem cells - and thus - although not a natural heart, it would if fully successful be actually incorporated into the body and I presume not require a lifetime of anti-rejection drugs. Like the framework used to produce replacement gall bladders using stem cells - but no framework required and allowing far more complex shapes
You have emphasized in your interpretation the "Artificial" - describing the nature of the product when it is the method that is being emphasized. If they left out 'Artificial", someone else would complain that it isn't a heart - just a copy.
* The plan was to use the patients own tissue to derive the basic raw material

Notre-Dame cathedral: Firefighters tackle blaze in Paris - BBC News[^]
Looks bad. 
The Beer Prayer - Our lager, which art in barrels, hallowed be thy drink. Thy will be drunk, I will be drunk, at home as it is in the tavern. Give us this day our foamy head, and forgive us our spillage as we forgive those who spill against us. And lead us not to incarceration, but deliver us from hangovers. For thine is the beer, the bitter and the lager, for ever and ever. Barmen.
