That's the way I remember it M. The sheep was born with a cellular age based on the actual age of the animal from which it was cloned.
So for this to work it all, at this point at least, you'd have to clone a very young person, preferably a baby. A 90 year old millionaire who wanted a few more years with Anna Nicole wouldn't get much help from this technic.
Is this the same doctor who, in the past couple of years, was trying to help a couple that lost their young child to some tragedy clone her?
