{\it Comments:}  Astrid, this is a good improvement over the first version 
of your essay.  All the technical aspects are fine now.  The main issues
I still have, though, are ones I mentioned in the comments on the first version
too.   

First, as a matter of principle,
couldn't one say that a doctor or medical researcher {\it should care} about
the human being the cells she or he works with came from?  I don't doubt that
the way you describe things is probably the way that George Gey and others
did feel about HeLa once they had the cells.  But is that the way we
would or should want to be treated if our tissues are used in experiments?  I guess
one could argue that doctors must have some distance from the people they
treat or else they might not be able to do what is necessary in some 
cases.  But on the other hand, part of the modern version of the Hippocratic
Oath does call on doctors to see the human beings they treat as human beings
(not diseases or conditions).
It seems to me that there's a case to be made that that ideal should
extend to people doing medical research too.  Where does the line get drawn?

Second, you really dismiss the possible interest Henrietta's family
might have had in the world's knowing that HeLa came from a member of
their family.  Why does that not matter?  Yes the cells are not Henrietta
once they are removed from her body.  But they did come from her body
originally.
