Wayne,

Talk with Martin Weiss at NY Hall of Science since
he has looked at lots of ways of representing bio-chem
models... he might have an idea...  but the $20 amount
is a bit of a challenge...

You might also check with the folks at the Dolan Center
out at Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island, since DNA
is their thing...

> Subject: DNA Model as a Gift
>
> Hi, I'd like to present a model of DNA as a gift to someone. I'd like to
> construct it either from simple material readily found in drug, hardware or
toy stores.
> What I want to do with it is to label sections of the strands as genes of the
> individual: humor gene, happy gene, etc. Maybe there's even some low cost
model on the  market for $20.00 or less. Suggestions? I need to get it by
Friday, since the fellow  suddenly announced he's sold his house and is ready to
move by the 9th.
