Conspiracy messages in my DNA – oh noes !!!1111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111
Sunday, October 2, 2011
Here’s a fun little pop sci article dealing with encoding messages in DNA. Unfortunately this article takes away from the real news: that aliens hacked up their genomes, inserted them into bacteria, and sent them forward on meteors eons ago to populate different worlds. I’m sure there’s a PhD thesis in there someplace.
