haha... this was what i just saw on joe's AIM profile stuff while he was away...

"i WILL win Emily in a game of Literati...eventually :-P"

what, joe, you're not getting beat by louis' smart strategy of tagging "S" on everything you write now? :)

the idea of genetic determinism... it's scary, that some ppl believe in it... for instance now in POB class we're currently watching the movie GATTACA, where in the supposedly near future they essentially use your DNA to determine everything... it's a form of discrimination all its own, and we see in the movie the main character is denied a high class job(astronomy-related stuff) on the basis of him having health problems based upon his DNA from blood samples... despite the fact that he knows that he has the talent to do it... i'll explain later, i'm trying to do some relaxing, cause tomorrow i've got a lot to do...
