98% of the human genome is noncoding DNA. Termed junk DNA, this vast majority of all human DNA has no known biological function. Why would we have so much nonfunctional genetic material? Are these the instructions for superpowers that are waiting to be tapped or are they really just junk left over from millions of years of modification? I don't know about you, but I'm hoping for superpowers.

Making Good On A New Year's Resolution
I started reading a book today. I'm only 35 pages in, but I can already tell that this book is going to rock my face off. Here's a link to the book's website and here's a link to the introduction. Bye for now. I have some reading to do.

you will have to let me know how the book is. i've been wanting to read that one.
I listened to it on audiobook a while back. I walked every day for about a week and listened to it over that week.
There were actually parts that I struggled to stay awake during...while walking. Certain parts were good...yeah...certain parts.
