NP - Stem Cell Fumble

[barbara100 at mail.jps.net]

No. I don't buy that worm business.  We make our good and evil decisions all along the way, whether cans be open or not.  There's always a can of worms open somewhere. 
How many chances did Pokler have to escape Germany in GR?  His wife escaped, didn't she?  And remember They gave him that unrestricted leave with his daughter, and he thought about running, but didn't? He went back because he felt too powerless against Them, and because he wouldn't recognize the part he played in the scheme of things; it was too painful for him to see how his individual choices were creating the outcomes they did. Pokler played a part in that evil just like we all play our parts.  You sound like Pokler with your wormy, "oh, we're defenseless against Them talk."  We *are* Them. All of us, with our individual choices along the way.

But my point was that the can of worms is open already.
