Words for SNOT, a.k.a. genomic DNA

Category: Nature, as in parts, bits, molecular and stuff
Posted on: July 11, 2006 12:38 PM, by David Ng

As eluded to earlier, the concept of snot holds a special place in my teaching armada. As well, it appears that scienceblogs has reached their 1,000,000th comment. Obviously, this is due to the hard work of our unpaid interns, which is why Ben and I have decided to waive their photocopying and massage duties today. Anyway, let's see if we can get a few more comments.

In particular, below are a number of ways to say the word snot. Would love to see some more.
