This Week's Letters

With the beginning of the Gordon Research Conference season, a veteran conferee offers some sage advice for survival. Standardized, systematic annotation of the human genome is no small task; a suggestion is to capitalize on the existing journal system, and "by adding sections of highly structured text to each article...and linking subparts of an article to relevant database identifiers, one can envision how a 'literature annotation standard' could readily be interpreted by computers." And early and recent geologic models of the Slave craton in Canada, the oldest known terrestrial crust, are discussed.
