On Friday I celebrated today's anniversary of the announcement of the structure of DNA (in 1953), so I'm wearing these topsy-turvy paisleys now to honor a mixture of events: Yesterday (27 February) marks the birthday of Emperor Constantine the Great (272-337), singer Marian Anderson (1897-1993), medical scientist Charles Best (1899-1978), writer John Steinbeck (1902-1968), actor Elizabeth Taylor (1932-2011), consumer activist Ralph Nader (1934), NBA Basketball great James Worthy (1961) and singer Josh Groban (1981). And today marks the birthday of chemistry hero Linus Pauling (1901-1994), and it's also National Public Sleeping Day.
