Over the past several decades, a method has been perfected by which data
could be saved and re-read in the form of DNA sequences. However, the
longer the DNA was preserved, the more it broke down and the more difficult
it became to retrieve what had been saved. Now, inspired by fossils, ETH
Zurich scientists have found a way to encapsulate DNA in silica and apply
an algorithm when reading it that allows data to be decoded after time has
taken its toll.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
