<p>My first reaction: “Wait, Krebs was still alive?!” I can still see the Krebs cycle when I think about my biochemistry class, which I took back in the early 70s… which is, biochemically speaking, the dark ages.</p>
<p>Is he any relation to Michael Krebs a D.O. pediatrician in Redmond?</p>
<p>THe 70s was the dark ages, practically: I still have a genetics book from a class I took in 1986! Its a wee outdated.

I still mention it now to MY students just for fun. :)</p>
