permits, go to X, get fresh material, bring it back to my lab and
spend lots more money getting out the sequences I want, while storing
any residual material for future genetic work in the deep-freeze in my
own private natural history collection. After all, I put the sequences
in GenBank, what else would anyone want to know?</humour>
