You really researched this heavily.

Yeah.

I understand that from all this work, you've tried to clear it up and, you know, people will have their opinions, but I think you've given us at least everything that's known about it.

Now, I do want to, there's a real, about this, Watson wrote a book, Double Healing, and Crick didn't like the book.

No.

And he basically made stuff up about going to the Eagle Pub and, you know, all this stuff that never actually happened.

Can you tell us about that?

All right.

So it didn't stop there, of course, regarding the birth of molecular biology.

I'm going to get to the 62 Nobel Prize in a minute, but

That was 53.

In 57, Francis Crick took it a big step further with the central dogma.

And then in 61 with the codon three-letter.

So he wasn't happy with just structure.

He wanted to keep up about what was the functionality of this double helix.

And that seemed to be something that was distinctly that he owned.

Is that true?

All right, so we see the big idea man in work and, of course, getting that corroborated by others as to the functionality aspects of central dogma and codons.

Now, in 62, the Nobel Prize is awarded to Watson, Crick, and Wilkins.

Was that the right call?
