Future Ben

I have made 9 lines of transgenic mice. The idea is these mice are expressing GFP and my synthetic MRI reporter gene. We are at line 3 with no sign of expression.

I know transgenic mouse technology is not very reliable, but I am braceing myself for the worst case. I added an extra feature above and beyond what a normal transgenic DNA construct warrants. I fear the cost of my futureization habit will be epic fail.

It is in my nature to meddle with elements beyond my understanding.

It is a little known fact the med center is kitty corner to the Chinese UN consolate. It’s also just down the street from the UN. Roll that up with an ER and a helipad and you have spectacular traffic. I like the night traffic more because at least you can watch the flashing lights of the emergency vehicles and think of the playa at night. If China the UN and the police have one thing in common it is that they take themseves to seriously.
