Last week I watched the most amazing episode of NOVA, on the subject of epigenetics. Fascinating stuff-- and fortunately, PBS has an archive of sorts on it here: Ghost in Your Genes.
And speaking of archives, I googled myself (just first and last name, no middle initial or anything) the other day for the first time in over a year, and was amazed that the first hit is actually me. It's a pretty cool page, too-- one I didn't know existed. Go ahead, I'll wait.
Don't you love how wryly sarcastic my picture looks? Also, I didn't know they kept statistics and published them online; that seriously might've affected my wager in Final Jeopardy.
On a completely unrelated topic, on Sunday I ate my first persimmon. I liked it.
