Looking around on the web, I happened to notice this article.  While most
of it is snipped out, I thought that the third paragraph might be of
particular interest to people on the list.  While later in the article,
there's a link to the submitted report, when I followed the link, I was
unable to find it.

                     Gene Therapy for the Bald

                     It might be possible to use gene therapy
                     to treat baldness, researchers said on
                     Thursday. 

                     A team at the University of Pennsylvania
                     said they had managed to cause
                     growing human hairs to take up genetic
                     material -- and said it had been easier
                     than they expected. 

                     So far, they have only been able to turn
                     hair blue. But they say the idea could
                     someday be applied to growing hair.

The sardines weren't worth the trouble.  A few more shots, then 
Ryoga-san would overheat and explode.  Ducking around a corner, 
I managed to lose him as I entered the ramshackle residence of 
my Anime supplier.

One look at his face and I knew that I was betrayed.  "Tell me."
I insisted.  He refused, so I slammed him against the wall.
"Last chance.  Where can Ranma-Ranma find good fanfics?"
"Try Jason Liao." he whispered, before he slumped to the floor.
I heard the sounds of a door splintering as I left through the 
window, one step ahead of Tendo Heavy Industries...
