    The only advantage of organ donation is already being dead, as i am sure it would hurt a lot more otherwise.

In CT there is a checkbox for organ donations on the driver's license, but I wonder how many of the ones who want to donate have actually checked it...
    We have a box here in WV that asks if you want to donate

    One does not have to be dead to donate certain organs.

    How will we know which of you survived or even if it would be morally ethical to kill your clone ?
