RE: Armchair Science — The Discovery of Proteins' Secondary Structure
Oh in my book it's Pauling who discovered the structure of DNA!! He had the helix down and everything, he just had it inside out. A silly mistake, really, and it would've taken him a very short time to realize it, which is why Watson and Crick rushed to the presses (Nature magazine) like crazy, writing up "their" discovery in a single hurried page.
