"Many people ... are anxious about what it means to succeed." Sometimes kids get loaded down with expectations, even expectations to 'redeem' a family of people who see themselves as failures. Or carry on for 'winners'. Who wants to be in t

Historically, the people who made 'good' music -- by which I mean music that has been replayed and/or re-released for decades or centuries -- made music FULL-TIME, not as a hobby. The same is true today of people who have the time and talen

I think the key point is this: "Dr. King and colleagues gave Adam a database containing information on the enzymes, the chemicals and reagents to do the experiments, and access to the yeast cultures." I imagine it would have taken a really,

Wow. The sound of the Katholnig really adds another dimension. I don't usually bother about 'original instruments' much, but here's an undeniable example of how much 'modern' can mask intent.

Reminds me of a segment I once saw (60 Minutes? years back) about a mailman with an IQ of 145. He didn't see any reason to knock himself out just because he was born 'that way'. Happy doing what he was. What more is there?

It'd be great to have what you're looking for flash off and on like that garbage file, in purple, with an accompanying buzzing tone. But I still don't think it'd get me to wave my arms around like an evangelist.
