There's also another nicely done video for DNA translation: http://techtv.mit.edu/videos/783-translation-reading-the-dna-code-the-lego-animation-version

This is great. I'm learning about this in biology right now! It actually helped

Nope. Translation translates the mRNA that was transcribed from the DNA into protein.

i dont watch much dna-related media, but the ones i do see always seem to be play-schoolesque/comical

No posts in nearly a day? This is starting to look more like my twitter feed than BBG.

I hope you guys are enjoying the break and Joel's trip is going/went well.

Cool. I hope they doe some more complicated transcription process.

For those that don't know what I mean, or are just interested in seeing some 'SCIENCE', Drew Berry does some amazing DNA animations:

Imagine some of that in LEGO
