The Ever Dominant Bean

I went to my Anthro lab today. We're still doing heredity and alleles. I thought it was funny that we using little colored kidney beans as props, like we were all back in elementary school, grouping random pairs of red and white beans as alleles for 'people' and then eliminating the ones from the gene pool when natural selections or a random catastrophe deemed them fatal. It just goes to show you that you're never too old to play with counting beans.
