The importance of DNA timing-switches is explored in Nova's special, "What Darwin Never Knew.".....

Is a polished presentation.....but it does not reveal the nature of the biochemistry triggering the shift in the status of the all-important DNA timing switch.

I really enjoyed the technical quality of the presentation.....as I know you did too.....You responded to me about this NOVA show with a question....."What triggers the order to switch ? The environment ? How ?"

This concern interests me, also.....as it points toward an area of CBIS expertise.....It seems.....In looking at the function of this DNA "gate-switch" intention is allosteric in nature.....so this points toward endocannabinoids endowed with receptors to accommodate allosteric-acting phytocannabinoids found in the cannabis plant.

Or.....is there supposed to be some other sub-set of modulatory triggers at play the endocannabinoid system doesn't know anything about?.....is this a joke.....or something?.....
