16 amino acids WAR at Virginia TECH
Amino acid social expressions
Internal biology atoms, molecules , and processes have thoughts, ideas and conflicts. The conflicts can create message EVENTS that occur on the geography surface of EARTH. The biology created EXTERNAL message EVENTS use bio-computer humans as output display devices.
Let's look at NATURE and the EARTH LAB site ..... known in molecular cell biology circles as Virginia TECH university.
Let's look at the INTERNAL genetic code, genetic engineering of English language of symbols and words for the purpose of university student brain manipulation AND Nature's anger at this process AND consequently the genetic code EXTERNAL anger expression display at Virginia TECH,
Virginia Tech
genetic social engineering massacre
The Virginia Tech massacre was a school shooting that took place on April 16, 2007, on the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Virginia, United States. Seung-Hui Cho, a senior at Virginia Tech, shot and killed 32 people and wounded 17
others in two separate attacks, approximately two hours apart, before committing suicide (another six people were injured escaping from
classroom windows).
About two hours after the initial shootings, Cho entered Norris Hall, which houses the Engineering Science and Mechanics program

Genetic code
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The genetic code is the set of rules by which information encoded within genetic material (DNA or mRNA sequences) is translated into proteins (amino acid sequences) by living cells.
Biological decoding is accomplished by the ribosome, which links amino acids ......
an order specified by mRNA, using transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules ---> Nature's military order .....using MR.CHO messenger molecules
MR. CHO ... molecules to carry amino acids and to read (molecule English language)
MR.CHO (English literature major reader)... to read the mRNA three nucleotides at a time.
With some exceptions,[1] a three-nucleotide codon in a nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.
nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.
nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid.
nucleic acid sequence specifies a single amino acid --> the CHOSEN ONE

Discovery
Serious efforts to understand how proteins are encoded began after the structure of DNA was discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick, who used the experimental evidence of Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin (among others). George Gamow
postulated that a three-letter code must be employed to encode the 20 standard amino acids used by living cells to build proteins. With four
different nucleotides, a code of 2 nucleotides would allow for only a maximum of 42 or 16 amino acids.

Code gene autry + brain genetics detective dick tracy
Degeneracy results because there are more codons than encodable amino acids.
For example, if there were two bases per codon, then only 16 amino acids could be coded for (4²=16).
Because at least 21 codes are required (20 amino acids plus stop) and the next largest number of bases
is three, then 4³ gives 64 possible codons, meaning that some degeneracy must exist ...

wikidiff.com/hollow/empty
As verbs the difference between hollow and empty is that hollow is to make a hole in something; to excavate (transitive) or hollow can be to urge or call by shouting; to hollo while empty is (ergative) to make empty; to void; to remove the contents of. As a adverb hollow is (colloquial) completely, as part of the phrase beat hollow or beat all hollow.

Variations to the standard genetic code
Four themes run through the many hypotheses about the evolution of the genetic code:
Chemical principles govern specific RNA interaction with amino acids. Experiments ...... Experiments at Virginia TECH took RNA and created the symbol permutation RAN ....... and then college RAN as Nature's Messenger RNA started shooting his gun bullets for a gene news bulletin.
Biosynthetic expansion. The standard modern genetic code...............
Natural selection has led to codon assignments of the genetic code that minimize the effects of mutations.[49] A recent hypothesis[50]

Thus we see the mystery of April 16.
In year 2013, Virginia TECH and other East Coast schools continue with their degeneracy problem .... the perfect people with the perfect attitude are to lazy to be aware of such trivial messages from Nature.
The genetics problem has been broadcast on national television.

The Two Cultures is the first part of an influential 1959 Rede Lecture by British scientist and novelist C. P. Snow.[1][2] Its thesis was that "the intellectual life of the whole of western society" was split into two cultures – the sciences and the humanities – which was a major hindrance to solving the world's problems.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Two_Cultures
The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution. The lecture and book expanded upon an article by Snow published in the New Statesman of 6 October 1956, also entitled The Two Cultures.[3] Published in book form, Snow's lecture was widely read and discussed on both sides of the Atlantic, leading him to write a 1963 follow-up, The Two Cultures: And a Second Look: An Expanded Version of The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution.[4]
Snow's position can be summed up by an often-repeated part of the essay:
A good many times I have been present at gatherings of people who, by the standards of the traditional culture, are thought highly educated and who have with considerable gusto been expressing their incredulity at the illiteracy of scientists. Once or twice I have been provoked and have asked the company how many of them could describe the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The response was cold: it was also negative. Yet I was asking something which is the scientific equivalent of: Have you read a work of Shakespeare's?[5]
I now believe that if I had asked an even simpler question – such as, What do you mean by mass, or acceleration, which is the scientific equivalent of saying, Can you read? – not more than one in ten of the highly educated would have felt that I was speaking the same language. So the great edifice of modern physics goes up, and the majority of the cleverest people in the western world have about as much insight into it as their neolithic ancestors would have had.[5]
In 2008, The Times Literary Supplement included The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution in its list of the 100 books that most influenced Western public discourse since the Second World War.[2]
