<plus now that we've gotten so good at exporting the ability to commoditize jobs, it'll only take half as long to commoditize biotech employment as it did to do the same to silitech. -g/ng->

You can buy all the genomics info you want right here:

finance.yahoo.com

In fact, just buy the company. Then use these chips:

finance.yahoo.com

Naw, just by that company too!

Unfortunately all this stuff is much more complex and slow moving than many thought.... AND often driven by the wrong driver.... profits only.

Take INCY... all that genetic infomation available on all sorts of health problems. Take obesity... a problem exploding in our lifetime... biotech tries to make a pill to counteract it [MLNM], but no one spends a dime figuring out what different people with different blueprints should avoid eating, or eat more of, or avoid certain chemicals, etc etc. No money there despite the overwhelming common sense. Let's make a pill so I can just keep doing what I'm doing. UFB

Although the two goals sometimes line up, sadly, much of our healthcare is the same, try and make "bandaid" drugs.

some sort of parity is where we're all heading. nature hates an imbalance

For sure there will be times when they will pull us down as they come up to meet us. It's good that this happens, I think if we were always rising it would foster complacency and complacency is never the mother of invention.
