There is a fascinating program on PBS tonight on NOVA about

epigenetics. If you miss it, try to look up about it on PBS.org. Rhonda H and all---it gives you a better understanding of how pesticides and carcinogenic compounds that your grandmother was exposed to may affect you!

Really food for thought!
