] "I tapped my latex-gloved fingers against the edge of a
] microscope and wondered what would happen if I stole a
] flask. They looked so damn cool, like geeky candy jars.
] Then I thought about pocketing a test tube for use as a
] demented shot glass. What had aroused these thoughts? Was
] it my upbringing, surrounded as I'd been by hackers,
] subversive writers, and sarcastic leftists? Or did they
] come from some kind of genetic predilection to be
] disobedient? As I regretfully left the flasks behind me
] in the lab, I realized that it didn't really matter
] whether my urges were cultural or biological. My behavior
] would remain unchanged. And my attitude about that
] behavior would remain unchanged as well. "

This article rocks. PCR, electrophoresis, "geeky candy jars", nature and nurture issues. Its cram full of fun biology geekness.
