Hi folks, Tom Peeler and I use TBL in our Workshop Genetics Course. We're substantially updating the course for this fall, but last year's web link is: http://comenius.susqu.edu/BIOL/201/01/workshophome.htm I'll let you all know when the new web site is live. I also taught a nonmajor's biology course (a food science course) entitled 'The Spice of Life' that incorporated RAPs as part of the course. Its website is: http://comenius.susqu.edu/BIOL/010/Tobin-Janzen/spiceoflifehome I hope your summers are going well.
