Quotes

Marin Supervisor Kate Sears praised him as "a brilliant, hardworking jurist. He set a high standard. He was also wise and kind with a sense of style. Hank was just a fantastic man."
...and his breadth of experience makes him extremely well-qualified for the appointment to one of our country's most important courts," he said. "His appointment would also be historic for the Indian American and Asian American community. Representation of Indian Americans within our judicial system is overdue" Bera said
"Srinivasan's confirmation will be an important first step to filling this court's four vacancies, and the full Senate should act without unnecessary delay" White House press secretary Jay Carney said
...seems almost certain to rekindle a political fight that has raged, on and off, since the announcement of the creation of Dolly the sheep in 1997. "The issue of legislation on human cloning is about to get hot again" says Hank Greely, director of the Center for Law and the Biosciences at Stanford Law School (Rovner, 5/16)
