...prompt people to take the financial responsibilities of retirement into their own hands. The Roth proposal may help some, but since the plan obviously benefits those who have money to begin with, it still leaves out in the cold those who can't afford to save.

Decoded cDNA began tumbling out of his machine. A portion of these decoded regions were used as tags--he called them expressed sequence tags (ESTs)--to help scientists distinguish one gene from another and identify related genes even in other species. "His invention of ESTs was inspired," says Victor McKusick, a geneticist at Johns Hopkins University who is often called the father of genetic medicine. In June 1991, when Venter published his first paper based on this work, scientists had identified only about 4,000 genes, each one representing years of painstaking labor. In one day, Venter added...
