Day 7: Something I Intend to Buy

Share

Although I'm not really prone to whimsical purchasing, there are a few things on my wish list, which I constantly update. One of the things on that list that has been on there for the longest time is this:



It's not very functional, except as a paperweight, but it is something that has inspired me since the moment I first saw the structure of DNA. Since then I have read Watson and Crick's story, their research, and the memoirs. This crystal in a crystal makes life possible. It's a thing of beauty.

On the off chance that's too expensive for you, as it has thus far been for me, there are a slieu of books on my wish list too. Let me know if you want to buy one or more for me, and I'll send you links ;).
