Something To Chew On

Scientists have come up with a way to regenerate mammalian teeth--they've demonstrated it by growing pigs' teeth in rats' intestines.

Eeeewwwww...

Brush early and often. As one wag at Free Republic said, "it kind of eliminates the need for a mouth..."

Seriously, this could mean a revolution in dentistry. No more crowns, bridges, dentures or implants. Just regrown teeth, like sharks.

Rat's teeth aren't the only things they're growing these days.

PETA has not gone ape yet?

PETA would rather *be* apes than human- better karma, in their bizarre view...

Great!

Now liberals run the risk of getting their heads bit off when they stick 'em in their @sses...!

Put 'em in cow's innards and they can chew their cud while grazing. Bovine multi-tasking! What a civilization!
