I have recently entered the last third of my life and am pretty sure it's going to be the best part. I have always enjoyed writing. Intensely dislike rewriting, tho, so never put forth the effort necessary to get off the pot. It never occurred to me that a place like Helium existed and I'm thrilled to find it.

DNA evidence is arguably incontrovertible. When I think of its use, it's usually in a criminal context. The issue here is not whether DNA should be used. With the exception of a guilty criminal defendant and his or her advocate, I can't think of anyone who would suffer if it were. After all, according to the Innocence Project, to date 205 people have been exonerated by the use of DNA post-conviction in the U.S. alone. The question before us now is whether a nationa...
