Craig Venter on the Sinfest Forum

A fun conversation I saw on the Sinfest forums about Craig Venter’s genome:

Dro: My father was reading Craig Venter’s autobiography. I flipped it open to see if there was anything interesting about sequencing the genome. I read, “My Ph.D. committee was amazed by the length and rigor of my thesis”. Put down book.

mouse: a little thesis envy there, dro?

wish i could remember where i saw it – back when venter was sequencing the human genome, someone put up a poll on “who is the unidentified individual whose dna is being sequenced?” – and the choices were a) craig venter; b) craig venter or c) craig venter.

man doesn’t seem to have any self-esteem problems.

FYI, Sinfest is a webcomic by Tatsuya Ishida.
