DNA News Links

Found on one of my comms and am cross-posting the links here:

S. 1858: Newborn Screening Saves Lives Act of 2007

Does this scare you? It sure does me! I mean come on, we all know the track record here -- do you really think there is no mega-disaster potential?

EDIT: I hope the links work now. If not, please let me know.

Request For Tape

Ok, Showtime is supposed to be playing "Candy" at 12:00 am Tuesday -- in other words, in just a few hours. Is there anyone who could possible tape it for me? Not dvd (I have that) but an old-fashioned VHS tape to play in a vcr.

My problem? I get Showtime, I have a vcr but I *cannot* get the remote to add the vcr, so I am unable to tape it. I have spent the last few hours trying to get this deone, and I can't do it. Period. End of discussion. And since I am leaving for work in ten minutes, I won't be online again for awhile, so while I appreciate that some kind person might offer to help me program it by email or IM, it's not do-able.

So if someone, *anyone* would tape this for me, I would be more than glad to reimburse you for your time and trouble. ::fingers crossed:: Thanks in advance!

PS. My problems w/the dvd are too long to post here.
