We have not even come close to finding all the ways to get genes into cells and incorporated into the host dna. Frezno says so!

You have to use your imagination, though; it's only a schematic. It’s a plasmid! You have to use your imagination, though; it’s only a schematic.

Today I read the whole thing, mainly to avoid packing, and now it all makes a great deal of sense--only I no longer understand the picture. Is the little white dot supposed to be the microscopic tungsten bullet? S'up with that? So before when you told me to look at this, I only looked at the picture, and thought it was funny.
