Lunch Hour

Finished the "Science in American Life" exhibit at American History. Not particularly novel - the 1990's isn't really history to me. The Superconducting Super-Collider, the Ozone hole, recombinant DNA and GMO's are all recent history. The most interesting bit was the Smithsonian's novel explanation of recombinant DNA, which they had Siskel and Ebert explain using a Marx Brothers sketch, which featured Harpo sliding the sheet music of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" into an otherwise coherent opera score.
