[Interesting Times]

Ping.

Thanks for the ping. Very interesting. Especially that the RNA molecule moves up the DNA molecule with enough strength to pull the glass beads together. I wonder where that strength comes from, and whether the RNA molecule moves in ripples like an inch-worm.

Also, I wonder what happens if the free end of the RNA molecule encounters the middle of a DNA molecule. Does it start from the middle and replicate both ways, or does it first move to the end of the DNA molecule and start replicating from there?
