Lake Washington Redux

Roger-
We might take you up on your offer to tour your lab! I've been to the U of W fishery school several times , but never to "your world".
 
Larry,

I'd be happy to show you around. Also, contrary to what has been suggested above, I think you can "trust them biochemical dudes" as we all are "biochemical dudes" (or dudettes) at our core. Actually the one of the neat things about DNA is that we are all coded with 99.9% identical sequences. Hence, all the racism in the world is focussed on traits encoded by a fraction of the 0.1% of the DNA that is different when we perhaps should be focussed on the 99.9% that's the same.

So at the DNA level, Tyboo and I or even Oldgrowth Dave and I are almost identical....

But clearly there's a strong environmental influence in how one thinks.... :wink:
 
Took the cover off Lizzie, put in at Newport ramp and did a lazy lap around Mercer Island. Man, is it good to get on the water for a few hours!Talk about happy DNA! Dotty says I can't take the snow tires off yet, though. :smile
 
If I get my chores done I might be able to have some fun on the water. Is the plan to meet on the freshwater side of the locks at 13:30?
 
Dang, couldn't rassle a day off tomorrow. Guess I'll just have to slip on down to the locks around lunch time and see what I can see.

Catman, Will be looking for you. I will be the one waving wildly- no, on second thought, that would spill the beer. :beer Robbi

We had our DNA checked through the Nat'l Geographic Genographic Project and just got the results back before leaving CO -- sure enough, as many of you would have suspected, El is rather closely linked to Sister Teresa and my DNA closest relative is a chimp in the simian cage in the Cincinnati Zoo.
 
C-Sick- I am planning to be there, the freshwater side of the locks, with the Lizzie at 1330. Shannon Greenway, of Tom&Shan will be along to take some pictures. Hope to see you there. Marty

I'm guessing that's one of the smarter and less well behaved chimps...

Hey, back to the lab tour -- there are three of us (at least) on the boat who would be interested in a 'tour' of your lab, but need a drive back to the parking spot at the start point for the Argosy cruise -- is that possible?? If so, we'll be looking around at the end of the cruise ... if not easy on your working day, we sure understand ... maybe one of the C-Dorys accompanying the Argosy might even get us a hitch back to the start. ...
 
Roger --
Thanks for the interesting and informative tour of your lab this afternoon -- we sure appreciate yur taking the time -- fascinating work with the DNA and we only just scratched the surface of what you are doing. Thanks again --
