Hey Mr. Curry,

Long time listener of the charlie, I really appreciate the hard work.

Regarding genetic profiling. To be fair, I think a lot of our baseline tendancies are genetically defined, but tweaked through enviroment. Many of the traits that successful people have are most likely the very same as criminals, it's the application that makes the difference. And I think it's the understanding of how to apply those traits that is largely influenced by enviroment. To be fair, the test for these traits should be done on our civil servants, military and politicians, and I would guess a majority test positive for the markers they want to look for in our children.

Pardon the spelling, doing this over a blackberry,

holy helix, Adam, you are so fucking superficial: GATTACA is a great movie but it is not about DNA profiling but about genetic engineering: people who are *not* genetically engineered are inferior in all aspects, physical and mental, than those created with genetic engineering. The situation in UK refers however to DNA profiling and has totally NOTHING to do with genetic engineering.

750 pounds every 3 years people who are not employees must pay? WTF is going on with UK: many taxes, some of them covert (council, green, congestion, etc), forcing people with income abroad to tax it UK, even if double taxing would take place. And that Norther Rock bailout! UK is in meltdown when it comes to financial situation and many enterprenuers and businesmen and businesses are leaving UK! THIS IS story number one in UK and not stupid CCTV cameras or stupid suggestions to introduce DNA profiling for kids... don't you get it Adam? You will stay in UK because you are sick enough of Netherlands and USA is too far away but many businessmen and businesses are fleeing UK - you should help here and not stupid conspiracy/big brother bullshit...
