A couple of months back, I sent away for a free set of genome fridge magnets from the Open University. Problem is, our fridge is a built-in one hiding behind solid Brazilian Rosewood chipboard/oak veneers; and they aren’t magnetic.
Talk about blessing in disguise. Now we have this fantastic genome-inspired central heating radiator. Good eh? (There’s me, then there’s Damien Hirst.)
So, 22 matching pairs of chromosomes, plus an X-Y pair (because I claim to be male; females have an X-X pair), for a total of 46.
Cool radiator. Result.
