> all for fame and fortune

I understand the compassion for animals, of course, but not this sentence. Advancing science is not "all for fame or fortune". If it cures people, I can see it. I too would love a world without animal suffering, but I'd also love to not be literally seeing (and I just came back from my parents') my dad slip more and more into nothingness at the hand of this stupid disease.
