Dear Lederbergs,

Could I congratulate you both on Josh's election to the
Academy, recently reported in Science. I assume this does not
mean he intends to become a dignified elder statesman, instead
of the wicked genius of bacterial genetics.

With best wishes to you both,

Yours sincerely,
Raymond K, Appleyard
