Respectfully answering your questions, Jen. Who was watching the lab? Was there any controversy here? Does this resemble an election, in any way? What could go wrong? Andrew Grove, a founder and CEO of Intel Corporation, wrote, " "I tend to believe Mark Twain hit it on the head when he said, "Put all of your eggs in one basket and WATCH THAT BASKET." ? Andrew S. Grove<https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/37708.Andrew_S_Grove>, Only the Paranoid Survive <https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/664484> Most lab sabotage is inadvertent. The link below includes a discussion -- one of many possible. https://www.reddit.com/r/labrats/comments/4k7whx/how_has_someone_sabotaged_your_experiments/ News is sketchy about whether any biologists in the world would do such a thing intentionally. It's usually paranoia to think they would. On matters of DNA, David Carkeet defers to Jennifer Zinck. I kind of expect Jennifer will agree with this entire post. As a responsible scientist, it's what I think she'd say to an intelligent group if her topic were the topic I raised in this forum today. "I knew I was in the hands of an expert. I bided my time, awaiting her report," he writes in his report. The following links are not intended to disparage scientists. It's just part of being fully informed. Multiple separate tests -- great. Respect for experts, fine. Matter closed? For them who want to move on, no problem. For them who want to keep going, is that a problem?
