DNA guy dies

Recommended Posts

i was just going to post it. Good ole Crick is gone.

Think about it - it was only 51 years ago that he and Watson discovered the double-helix design. Now, think of how far DNA research and technology has come in 50 years since that fundamental discovery.


My wife is hotter than your wife.

Don't forget Rosalind Franklin.

She's already dead.

I know that.

I was referring to the "Watson and Crick discovered the double-helix design" phrase...



Well, Franklin certainly didn't discover it despite sitting on the experimental data for the best part of a year. If she was as smart as the revisionist historians claim, how come she didn't figure it out for herself?

Fact is, the model was built in Cambridge by FC & JW, and not in London by MW & RF, and all the structural chemistry (figuring out the hydrogen bonding between the base pairs, etc) was done in Cambridge.

Yeah what he said:)
Watson and Crick are 2 of my heroes:)
They also have one of the shortest Nobel Prize for Science submisions in history, their entire write up was only about a page long:)
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)
My Life ROCKS!
How's yours doing?
