Oh you do, do you?

What if I told you there was a Funnel Chair level?

Would go sniffing around down there in the basement?

Why the umbilical cord?
I'm wondering if it's because it has stem cells in it that can be used for health. This from Wikipedia:

The umbilical cord lining is a good source of mesenchymal and epithelial stem cells. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC) have been used clinically to treat osteoarthritis, autoimmune diseases, and multiple other conditions. Their advantages include a better harvesting, and multiplication, and immunosuppressive properties that define their potential for use in transplantations. Their use would also overcome the ethical objections raised by the use of embryonic stem cells.

Oh wow! This is new to me. Now I wonder what the hospital does with the Umbilical cord. Do they give it to the mother?

You beat me to it

I remember hearing years ago they we're using umbilical cords for all kinds of things
