On James Watson resigning/retiring from Cold Spring Harbor Lab...

It's fittingly so, that James Watson is (perhaps forced to) retired from his leading position at Cold Spring Harbor Lab, after making the highly offensive and patronizing remarks about blacks being inferior in terms of intelligence, and his "worries" about the prospects of Africa, as a result, given that he has admitted that there is no scientific proof to his claim.

One glaring fact is that, while he's sorry for how offensive his comments have been, he never admits that he's wrong about it, even though he has no proof for his claim or remarks. What an outdated jerk.
