    I guess it depends on the value we give it, as a set of cells or a work of love/lust, I think that once you made it you should take care of it, even if it are just a few frozen cells. Every frozen embryo is a could have been, maybe we should just leave reproduction to love and lust and accept when reproduction is just impossible. I personally feel that these people have broken a fundamental rule, just not sure which one....Completily torn with this one really.
