Excerpt (first and last two sentences)
"On April 14,
2003 the human genome project was declared to be over and the genome completed.
After twelve years and nearly $3 billion, scientists have produced a genome that
“can be used out of the box… without extra resequencing” (4/15/2003, F1, “Once
Again, Scientists Say Human Genome is Complete”)....
...With all the fanfare, this same standard is not being applied to the genome.
With such obviously missing sections and scientific skepticism, the genome
cannot be considered perfectly completed."
