26、ess. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gesture-and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.

32、ry. There are now more than a thousand genetic tests, for everything from baldness to breast cancer, and the list is growing.

34、sease to hit you.
