Healing burns in a matter of days with the stem-cell gun

I agree with your original post. I feel we should give everyone a "How do you feel about science test?" and those who earn a rating of "Fundie" are thereafter denied everything in existence that has resulted from the process of science.
The sick part is there are some that would take that as a badge of honor.

While they type at their computer about the evils of science...
 
Somewhere in the infinite limbo of cyberspace, there’s a lost and lonely topic searching in vain for its thread.

Well just to be different...

The one thing I wonder (and I will admit that this just now popped into my little noggin) are there potential side effects? Like a stem cell going cancerous instead of just becoming skin? Or is there any danger of cellular destabilization? Also what's the cost (Actual not the total cost for recouping research and development) is this something that would some day be able to be as common as a bandaid? Or will it always be just for the rich and the lucky?
 
This being in the beginning stages i think some things need to be ironed out especially the potential flaws.

However it is amazing what it can do and i never thought it possible.. i read up a bit on the whole science of it and it is fascinating.

I guess it needs a few years of refinement and further tests but i think in a decade or two it will become common and a heaven's gift to burn victims.
