NOTE FROM FRAN:

Scientists recently announced the first birth of a baby who
had undergone genetic testing as an embryo to screen for a
disease that might not show up until adulthood, if at all.
While they’re looking for predispositions toward Alzheimer’s,
diabetes and the like, we at TopFive are focusing on:

4> Tendency to recruit friends into Amway.
