Word of the Day - Stem

Stem cells grow slowly; they're moving, fighting one another, rolling dice to decide what they want to become. It's funny, to watch, y'know. All the cells gathered around the table, throwing down numbers and muttering curses as they move to another side of the table and start to mutate - make room for new cells to gather. The researchers are just watching the game, hoping they can use some loaded dice somewhere; it rarely works.
