Fwd: Re: information sharing and biology

[Susan McCouch]

Hi folks,

I have just looked at the article cited below.  Gramene is mentioned 
in a one-liner in the 4th paragraph from the bottom.  It's short but 
sweet- they cut most of the info that was in the original article, 
which is too bad, but we've already been slashdotted and inquiries 
are coming in.

I suggest we consider putting this up in our "NEW" category on the 
web page, though it's a bit heavy on the salesmanship.

Alas, the story we emailed about ended up getting nixed by the 
Atlantic Monthly (after they accepted and edited it --- but so it 
goes). So, I sent it to the Washington Monthly, and they have just 
published it. They did shorten it substantially and make it more 
tendentious than the original, but at least it's out.

thank you very much for your help and time, and please let me know if 
you come across any other interesting stories that I should cover *
