Already aware of the sequence of the 77 "code letters," or nucleotides, in the DNA of the gene, Khorana painstakingly "assembled" the letters one at a tune in the proper order to produce a synthetic unit. The rabbit gene is at least eight times as large, containing about 650 nucleotides strung together in a sequence that scientists have not yet completely determined. Clearly the Harvard group could not follow...

She's already put out two albums herself, but Wendy Waldman is her first major record. Her voice sounds like Mitchell's might if you threw a little yeast into it and aged it for a while.
