Introduction

Hello to all! Really, who am I kidding? I might get a handful of people to read this, but my hope is for it to spread. Let me explain. I'm taking an online course from BYU-Idaho this semester called Understanding DNA. For those who were born yesterday the purpose of the class is to understand DNA. A few weeks ago as part of the curriculum we students were to choose a project that would allow us to impact our community. Seeing as how we now live in a world of Facebook and blogs I thought what better way than to create a blog and advertise it through Facebook? After the thought I realized that maybe only my sisters would read it voluntarily (I'm going to force my husband to) so I started to brainstorm other ideas. I eventually concluded that if I only get five people to read my blog, and each of them share something with just one person that's 10 people that have learned something through the blog. So, if you are reading this first let me thank you and then let me challenge you to share just one insight with someone you know. I think this could work! As far as the plan goes, I'll do one or two posts a day. If you read this please, please, PLEASE, ask me questions that you're not sure, tell me something you liked or appreciated, and/or tell me something I should explain better. There are many things I've found interesting throughout the course. Some of my sources will be from the course material. If you have questions concerning that, let me know and I'll get you the source.
