An old Nature article about Chimaerism, which is a very rare occurance for fraternal twins. Well actually, when what should be fraternal twins becomes one person.

This was on CSI last night so I was curious if it was real. Apparently it is, which is kind of cool.

Uh, this needs to be voted down until at least 2008 (or even December 2007 works for me) so that we don't have to worry about this. Maybe I could work out of the Italian office for a few years...

At least it's not hot. I can take rain and thunderstorms, but not weather that's >85 or <30.
