goodbye/fun facts....National DNA day...On this day in 1953, James
Watson and Francis Crick formally announced their discovery of the
3 dimensional double helix they called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
Fast forward to 1990, when scientists from around the world came
together to begin mapping the human genome...and while DNA evidence
isn't typically the number one resource used for solving crimes, it
has been instrumental in both exonerating or confirming
individuals. Genealogical DNA testing companies usually run annual
sales around DNA Day if you've ever wanted to research your family.

Ever Told" (PBS) "The Gene" (PBS)
