I was talking at dinner recently about the effort to clone cows with human
genes to make a cow that produces more-human milk.  My 25-year-old daughter
said, "This is all so much effort, when human mothers have milk already. It
seems that they just can't get THE COW out of the equation of feeding babies."

That's about it, isn't it?
