Across the UK, across continental North America, at around the world, on the internet, by webcast

and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes, and this is the unexplained.

Thanks for coming back to the show and thank you for your emails, which are now reaching

me nice and safely, I've had lots of emails in the last couple of weeks.

You might remember on the last edition of the show, we mentioned that there was a problem

with emails sent to the show around about the first week in July, some of those emails

have disappeared into cyberspace.

We had some technical issues that were not down to us to do with the link between the

website and one of my email addresses.

Now that's been sorted and your emails will reach me, but if you had sent me an email

during that first period of July, maybe the last day or two of June 2, and you didn't

get a reply, that could be the reason so please try again and I'm really sorry we had

that problem, it's now sorted.

Interesting times here, what have we got in the news?

Well, the first stem cell research burger has been cooked and prepared and they're talking

about more genetically created meat artificially made meat to feed the burgeoning population

of this planet.

Now on one side, that's a good thing because more and more people are going to need food

and more and more people are going to demand meat and how exactly without filling the

planet with creatures, are we going to provide that?

So that sounds like a good thing, but I just hope that they fully research this stuff

to make sure that it is absolutely safe.
