25 Comments on Scientists Say They Are On the Verge of “Printing” Internal Organs

1. That thing is nowhere near being able to print life, unless you can somehow make life out of plastic resin.

    …there used to be a shop in the local mall that had some elecric keyboards in the windows, but the place was called “Katy’s Happy Organs”, so I’m not sure if they’d be able to hook you up or if they sold something COMPLETELY different, @Vietvet, but it might be an interesting place to try either way…
