See, this is where animal creulty is used completely appropraitely. ((No, I was not joking.)) If humans could regenerate lost organs, or have procedures done to do this, this would eliminate that whole cloning "extra clone for spare parts" idea (which is kind of repugnant one one level; appealing on another).

... as long as it DEFINITELY DOES NOT involve animal cruelty. (bet you're all surprised about my stance on that).
