Apropos this topic, I read in ``The Independent on Sunday'' (UK paper,
Sunday 20th October), that a UK Government agency plans to patent the
human brain. There are an estimated 30,000 genes and application are
filed for more 350 genes already, with a futher 1,500 in the pipeline.
As Gary Greene pointed out to me, little can be really understood
without the attendant morphology.
However, this along with all the human genome stuff, is a cause for concern.
