	Just a little bit of terminology here:

fetus - a developing human usually three months after conception to birth.*

* Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary.

	I seem to remember 3 months being the abortion limit by someone's
law.  Perhaps the word should be "zygote."  Zygote sounds a little less human
than fetus.  Killing humans sounds like such a nasty thing to do perhaps if we
use different terms it will be more palatable.
