RIP in Peace David Crosby

RIP DC. You lived life on your terms. Not always pretty, but his way I guess. Great voice, when he had one.

I would have fapped for Etheridge back in the day, too.
I heard you actually did for Karen Kubby so they would finally extend First Avenue and Scott Blvd...

He did your mom in a gas station bathroom and left her in some random town on the way to his next tour stop?
meh F him. He slagged a lot of other musicians, probably because he was fat and bald. He couldn't even help himself to slag EVH on twitter after he died. He was a shitty human being. So F him.
 
Donated sperm to Melissa Etheridge and partner, who had a son that later died of an opioid overdose...
I remember years ago when it was publicly revealed that Crosby was indeed the sperm donor, one of the late night comedians quipped, “When they poor kid grows up he’s not gonna know whether to smoke the grass - or eat it”.

What will have to be done so that stem cells are widely available for all kinds of therapy? Can stem cells be used to grow more stem cells?
It depends on the therapy. For some, a replacement of just stem cells work. For most tissue damage, we usually convert the stem cells into the tissue precursors and then use those. And yes, we can use stem cells to grow more of themselves or change them to other stem cells.
We can grow a whole new you just with one vial of your blood or a couple of cm of your skin. Those cells live forever, long after you have died.

Are stemcells themselves in short supply though? That's what I had always thought... or maybe it's that the therapy is tricky and not very efficient... those expensive and not widespread. (or both)

I'm just wondering what it will take to get stem-cell related therapies to become widely available.

No, they aren't. Way back, early 2000's, the focus was on embryonic stem cells. Now, we can custom make your own. What will it take for therapy? Cash and the fda.
