In another, Buchwald declaimed against the "small elite group of men, no more than a dozen," who chose "to show the violence of the Purdue-Ohio State football game rather than the peaceful scenes on the sidelines.

There are two different viruses, the Harvard researchers knew, that invade an intestinal bacteria called E.coli and make off with several of its genes. But the two viruses capture only one bacterial gene in common: the one that enables E.coli to digest lactose, a sugar. Furthermore, the direction in which this so-called lac gene is inserted into the DNA molecule of one virus is opposite to its direction in the other virus...
