It is when the xray and the
allele try to occupy the same place
that you can get some major transcription errors.
When two things try to occupy
the same place at the same time,
the system can go bye-bye.
Randomness and an apparently
immortal atom do not in any way
go together.
Sam, if you're building a car,
do you want *anything* in the
production process to be
random?
Such as a "pinch" of salt. For any given cook, I suspect the
mass of salt in a "pinch" has a normal distribution.

Same is true for various alignments of parts in automobile
assemblage. One desires to keep the "random" variations below
some specified limit.


Exactly!!
One seeks to reduce tolerances in
order to improve mileage, increase lifetime, etc.

Random is a *bad* thing. It is not something
that should be part of any blueprint. Let alone
a TOE

Unfortunately, you cant always get rid of those random
processes, John. Welcome to the real world.


"Oh, just put the shower anywhere, Mr. Builderman."

If you're cooking with a number of ingredients,
which part of that process do you want to
be random?
If you're dressing for work, is that a random process, perhaps?

Selecting a pair of socks is a random process for many.
