In the greater picture, what are the advantages of cloning? You don't get shared memory. The clone is always expected to be 'just like the original'. Hell it's bad enough that parents try to live their own ambitions thru their kids. Cloning can only really be used for organ farming, so what is the point of breeding a whole person. As soon as the whole person is born, they must be treated as such. Not as support system for spares.
These crackpots whole have made these claims say they'll have an independant person do tests to prove it. I'd like to know how 'independant' they are. You've also got to ask why these claims are being made.
Are they doing it for political gain in thier own organisation? How can you trust a person with a hair style like that? Are they just trying to get notoriety for their organisation?

Methinks there's more to this than just the birth.
