Even though the genome hasn't unleashed a flood of new cures, it's still a great thing that we're getting excited over each new potential avenue of fighting disease. That way, one day we'll get enough knowledge together to make medicine as effective as we would like.<p>A few false starts along the way is fine as long as we keep going.

Genetics is complicated We know a little There is still much more to learn Genes interact in intricate ways<p>Sort of like the circuits/chips designed by a genetic algorithm work seemingly by magic and only within a certain temperature and only with that particular chip.
