Hello Dr. Palmer, I try and read the Wall Street Journal every day and once and a while I come across some really interesting stuff that new businesses are doing relating to the scientific world. One article that I though was really interesting was one called "Assembling the Global Baby." This article is about a company based in California, called PlanetHospital. What they do is help families you cannot have children by themselves. PlanetHospital uses an egg donor from one country, a sperm donor from another, and a surrogate who will deliver in a third country to make what some industry participants call a world baby. The most interesting part to me is that some countries will not allow a birth certificate to surrogate babies and deem this process illegal. I thought the picture in the article was a very good summary. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703493504576007774155... Thanks
