With people arriving as early as an hour before his lecture, a long line of more than 100 people were left outside the closed doors. A capacity crowd of 225 people heard Watson talk on the 60th anniversary of the discovery of the Double Helix. He'll speak again Tuesday at noon, this time at the Neuroscience Research Building, on oxidants, antioxidants and the curing of cancer.
