Ron gets a no-prize that'll be impossible to mistake for any other for bringing us news that full genome sequencing just got a lot cheaper. If this keeps up, people will be able to get sequenced just for the f- of it some day. Although I think Ron will most likely be the first one in line.
I did put the entire base-pair sequence for the SRY gene on my mortarboard for graduation. It'd be interesting to see how my mine compared to the "standard" sequence - especially since that gene's analogous for most animals (including fruit flies up through humans).
