I've always been interested in science - one of my favourite books is James Watson's 'Molecular Biology of the Gene.'

Whether I'm at the office, at home, or on the road, I always have a stack of books I'm looking forward to reading.

640K ought to be enough for anybody.

Evolution is the fundamental idea in all of life science - in all of biology.
