I miss Johnny Wadd, so I used his Thread Title format. Where have you gone?
(CNN) -- Francis Crick, who along with James Watson discovered the double-helical structure of the DNA molecule, died Wednesday of colon cancer. He was 88.

In My Blog I copied and pasted the original headline, or one from another article but it was same hyperlink:
Francis Crick, DNA co-discoverer, dies
I emailed them and it was changed, but there is No Way it was from my email, too quick. But anyway, to bore you to tears, from my mail:
Despite CNN's website headline, WandC did NOT Discover DNA. This is the Iconography of a Myth. So many students hit me with that one, teachers too. anyway...
WandC were the first to figure the SHAPE of the DNA Molecule. The Double Helix. We still know next to nothing about the cell, and back then we didnt even know the Shape of the DNA Molecule, though DNA was well known; we knew it was carrying the genetic info, we even knew what chemicals it was made of, but no one could figure the shape.
