In time for some of us[^], I'd wager.
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.

Tell her not to be.
I've been through no end of cathedrals, castles, other grand edifices, and by far the most interesting ones were classed as "ruins".
Falling down, breaking down, falling over doesn't make it worse; it adds to the mystique and your emotional involvement.

Brilliant example, but there are "fallen" castles, etc. all over the UK that are an absolute joy to explore.
Your imagination, when going through such places, is worth so much more than the drivel that tour guides spout.
Put yourself in the place of someone a hundred years from now, visiting La Dame.
Pristine and in perfect condition? "Yeah, lovely."
Fallen, with sections still perfect, but incomplete? "Oh, Wow!"

There used to be a youth hostel in Wales that was an old castle, still in working condition with limited amenities. I remember walking the halls where I had to turn sideways and the floor had humps in it high enough to trip over. It did not take much of an imagination to visualise the life style of those days. Romantic - NOT -

Don't forget to factor in a bit of wear and tear.
The craftsmen of old could do amazing things without all the power tools we have these days.

Well, of course, it's not as if she was still my girlfriend.

Very sad.
When we see heritage and historical buildings succumb to the elements of nature, we feel very sad.

I couldn't quite make out the apparent watermark - but there is an elephant in the pattern.
Somehow, I feel like I missed it.
