...longtime complaint that there isn't much software for the Macintosh has always confused me. It demonstrates a misunderstanding of quality vs. quantity. There doesn't have to be a lot of software if the software is good. I trust that the Macintosh market share will grow so that the industry is not forever slowed down by the anchor that's holding back innovation.

...inconclusive, because natural grass has been treated as a single entity. The hardness, density and traction of natural grass vary significantly from field to field. Since natural grass changes with the weather, it is very difficult to compare it to artificial turf. The relative injury risk for artificial turf vs. natural grass will be understood only when researchers can come up with different categories of natural grass that have a fixed injury profile. But I believe that eventually softer natural-grass surfaces using a low-traction species (e.g. ryegrass) will be proven to be the safest surface. DR. JOHN ORCHARD...

...some people bad because of their genes? Or because of an unfavorable upbringing? In recent years, the highly charged nature-vs.-nurture debate has surged back and forth without resolution. Now neuroscientists at the University of Iowa report intriguing evidence that neither genes nor upbringing may be the full explanation...
