This Week's Letters

The recent report about how the British government handled the outbreak of mad cow disease is discussed by an early participant in the advisory process. A Spanish program under way to create databases of mitochondrial DNA sequences to aid in the identification of missing persons is described. And the Dutch solution of dikes is suggested for Venice; however, "decades of industrial mismanagement, the local climate, and the need for tidal flushing of urban waste make the Dutch solution for saving Venice more complicated than...in the Netherlands."
