Made the drudge: Beginning: QUOTE One of the world's most eminent scientists [James Watson] was embroiled in an extraordinary row last night after he claimed that black people were less intelligent than white people and the idea that "equal powers of reason" were shared across racial groups was a delusion. Wow, kind of shocked by this... --------------------  |

Watson is a douchebag. Him, Crick, and Wilkins took all of the glory for discovering the DNA structure yet they heavily based their research from Rosalind Franklin's previous research. They also had her help in the whole process yet not once did she ever receive thanks by them. In fact, Watson later turned around and talked badly about her (much against the advice of Crick and Wilkins) in his book (The Double Helix).
