This is awesome. Who cares that it's a little cumbersome - it works! On a more national scale, could something like this be done for Congress? C-SPAN already does most of the hard work of filming and uploading to the web, so perhaps it

I don't know, I'm gay, and when I see a picture of Benedict Cumberbatch or Robert Downey Jr, I certainly don't think "Damn, he's accomplished and brilliant"; I think "Damn, he's hot!"

Only if that gene happens to be on the sex chromosomes! There are 22 other chromosomes, though. I'm no biologist, but I believe you are referring to sex-linked traits. Hemophilia is the most studied example, but there are many ( http:&

Thanks. To use something like Twilio, you'd have to pay. It's not immediately apparent, but this operates entirely for free, using the 'email to SMS' bridge that all major carriers already have. At some point I'll o
