Module 1

The most shocking part of our readings, to me, was the idea of DNA computers. I really can't comprehend how that would work, even after reading about it, and reading a little more about it. Not that there weren't other parts of the reading that were difficult to comprehend (all that math, yeesh!). But at least I had heard of all the other concepts mentioned, like the hardware parts, even if I severely needed clarification. The DNA though, is just way out there. Kind of frightening, actually.

This is my first posting for LIS636. I'm not entirely sure what to write about yet, as it is the first day of class, but I do indeed know how to create a blog; which is the first step. Currently, I am more baffled by the task of setting up a student web server account....

When I login there is no option to "request account". In fact I already have several files and directories there. Perhaps because I am already a UK employee with web page maintainer privileges? I'm rather confused as to where to go from here.
