Untitled, City of Rocks State Park, Faywood NM, March 25, 2012
Raw material for a series.
These Milkvetch* pictures I've been getting the last few days, with and without their attendant insects, seem to bring out a creative editing streak in me. And I have hundreds of pictures to work with. You may see a few more of the better ones show up here over the next few days. This creative license bit is fun.
* not Crested Milkvetch as I thought. This is another of the many many Milkvetches but I'll be darned if I can figure out which.

Few genes are required
One's brain is powerfully activated by learning that there are only 30,000 genes in the human genome. That is only twice as many as in the fruit fly, not renowned for its calculating ability, and about as many as a garden weed. Geneticists are sorely vexed that so few genes are required to make something as complex and clever as a geneticist.
