"JunkDNA" (98.7% of DNA in human) is not "Junk" - requiring a generalization of the "Gene concept". On http://www.junkdna.com website news items are posted (some of them reproduced here from http://www.junkdna.com/new_citations.html ) - to be discussed. My "two cents" is FractoGene (see similar website and upcoming book), a geometrization that has received now experimental support for its first prediction.

slashdot.org 300+ postings 1 day on FractoGene

When FractoGene first emerged publicly (21st of November, 2002), slashdot.org posted over 300 opinions in a single day, see a digest at:

http://fractogene.com/full_genome/investorstatements.html

That was before the sequencing of mouse DNA revealed (5th of December, 2002) that the "genes" in the mouse and homo sapiens are 99% homologous.

It was also before a peer-reviewed manuscript was submitted (27th of March, 2005) to show experimental evidence supporting the first prediction of FractoGene.

Second prediction (with profound implications) will appear in my upcoming book "FractoGene; Not all is in the Genes"

The "Slashdog.org" discussion brought up the (valid) issues of
a) peer-reviewed publication (1 out, 1 submitted)
b) experimentally testable quantitative predictions (1 peer reviewed publication providing experimental evidence supporting the first prediction was submitted on 27/04/05 with lead-authorship of Dr. Malcolm J. Simons ("about him"; http://www.simonsjunkdna.com )
