You mean DNA. "Genes" are what we call the bits we use that do have an impact. Yeah, most of it is junk that, in programming terms, is outside of the brackets. It's sort of like this.

Some of them were pretty big names, though I guess those tended to be cheaper.

Well, yes (I was a junior in high school last year), but the books I ordered came from Amazon.com and not the actual school. If I bought them there, they would have been a bit cheaper or around the same price.

If we only we could tap into that DNA! We would look so fucked-up. But, still. Science.

Well, actually they have purpose but that is still in research. On another note 8% of the human genome is made from viral DNA. (however, 8% is the number they have for now)

And I want to go into a field of medicine that is still in development. I guess it's what i gotta do.
