Vegging vs. Geeking

[jporter]

God bless him. Mine just graduated with honors from
U. of W., Madison, with a degree in Poli Sci and a minor in Bio.

He's taking a hiatus, at the moment, to try and reconcile the
medicine/law divide- and play a lot of guitar, among other
things. He "believes" in evolution, but seems much more
concerned about the ignorant application of the phenomenally
powerful techniques which have accrued in biotech,

especially in combination with the concentration of political
power in the hands of multi-national corporations which
increasingly are defining who and what we are- individually
and socially.

I think he may opt for a non-professional career.
