The Future...

Google co-founder, Sergey Brin, recently informed the world that he has a gene that increases his chances of developing Parkinsons.He responds:

This leaves me in a rather unique position. I know early in my life something I am substantially predisposed to. I now have the opportunity to adjust my life to reduce those odds (e.g. there is evidence that exercise may be protective against Parkinson’s). I also have the opportunity to perform and support research into this disease long before it may affect me.
