“So Watson and Crick discovered the structure of DNA - but why did that matter? Why does the shape matter?”
It affects how the DNA functions, what we can do with it, what we understand that it’s supposed to do. Think of it like a chair, right? You have kitchen chairs or big squishy armchairs…

I have been loudly, persistently anti-Trump since the beginning. And tonight's election results just make me more sure: *there are more of us than there are of them* A good hard look at Trumpism in action has made that impossible to ignore.

Alright let me tell you a story about a prominent scientist in my field and my first conference. This was in the days when most had adopted PowerPoint, but some of the older folks still showed up with actual physical slides to show on one of those old fashioned overhead projectors.

My wife has volunteered at a local food bank for years and confirms what many of you have probably heard: in this case, straight cash is a good donation if you can do it.
The food banks have better access and buying power than individuals do, and can try to address item imbalances as they see them.
