About every two years, a Nobel Prizes is awarded to a scientist whose work is funded by HHMI ... the institute where daughter Amy works.
Yesterday, a Nobel went to William G. Kaelin, Jr. of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and two partners whose research involved cells and oxygen.
It seems odd to some people that the HH stands for Howard Hughes. His estate funded the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
HHMI probably is the biggest private underwriter of the most basic research into causes of bad things happening inside human bodies.

Yesterday’s poor georgie’s almanack was my true story about an empty bottle of slivovitz, a typewriter and the New World Information Order.
