DNA, DNA, everywhere in people and corporations. You just can’t escape it!

Wilfried Aulbur, Daimler-Chrysler’s managing director and CEO, on selling cars in Ludhiana, India:

The DNA of Mercedes gels very well with the DNA of people in Ludhiana and Punjab! Punjabis are enterprising and innovative people. They also have an attraction for good things in life.

High definition is in Sony’s DNA, HDNA:

Valli at The Fast and the Fabulous:

The thing that you should know about me is that I am a true spectator. It’s what I’m good at (that and writing, of course). As a kid I had to go to all of my older sister’s sporting events. My sister is the athlete in my family. She did track (she was this close to going to the Olympics in the heptathlon), volleyball, and basketball. I was always content to sit in the stands and watch, or help out and take down the stats. I love events, it’s in my DNA.

Since its scientific discovery by Francis and Crick, the word DNA finally finds itself in language, in popular culture, in conveying ideas.

The expression “in my DNA” can be used to boast one’s family lineage of an inherited good quality or tradition, or it can mean one’s innate ability. More and more expressions that are of scientific origins may find their way in arts – in advertisments, novels or even propaganda.

Looks like everyone will need some sort of background in science to appreciate modern art!

I got that Sony flyer in the mail yesterday and I totally thought of you! I just had to LOL. You are on top of everything!

I guess I should be expecting samples from Hi Def Sony products in the lab very soon.
