DNA Sculpture Constructed with Shopping Carts
Roland Piquepaille writes "The U.K. supermarket chain Somerfield decided last year to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the discovery of DNA in an original way. It commissioned British artist Abigail Fallis to create a sculpture of a DNA double helix made of shopping carts and to display it during the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign of 2004. The sculpture, named DNA DL90, is 31 feet high and weighs more than three tons. It is on display since April 2004 at "Sculpture at Goodwood," the 21st century British sculpture park in Surrey. This photo gallery contains several pictures of this original artwork."
Or are is it just a coincidence that they have the same image header as Groklaw?
I really hate Dan Patrick.
This is not a troll. This is silly, offtopic, and a catchphrase that has been beaten to death. None of these things are trolls. Choosing appropriate moderations is not simply a matter of modding down anything you don't like with the first option on the list.
The moderation down of my previous post as 'offtopic' is a good example of a correct and levelheaded moderation.
In an ongoing effort to provide a modicum of interest and challenge for you, the Slashdot reader, this post will be both offtopic, a troll, as well as flamebait. Your patience is appreciated, as always.

...no other documentary director packs a wallop like Michael Moore, who has arrived in Cannes for the screening of his "Fahrenheit 9/11.
Michael Moore announced that Disney had officially prohibited Miramax from releasing the [latest] film and expressed his frustration that the film was being stifled. Disney said that the decision had been made a year before"

Slashdot has lost it. It amazes me what is considered news worthy.
