Mike,
With our interest in gene technology, and with the Russians having more problems with the MIR this week, I thought I would suggest a book for you to read. If you would indulge me by allowing me to bring family into our discussion I would suggest you read..."Dragonfly" by Bryan Burrough, who also co-wrote "Barbarians at the Gate". "Dragonfly" is about NASA and the crisis aboard MIR. The connection to the issue of genes is the fact that my first cousin, Dr. Norm Thagard was the first American to go up and stay on MIR and after reading this book and looking at my profile you will note the gene pool in my family wasn't evenly distributed. However, after seeing a picture of Norm in the book and maybe remembering him from national TV, you must know that I'm better looking than he and I have a full head of hair.(:>)
