Not sure what the storage medium is or how that works, but it's interesting.

Right Jad this is way over my head. It does make you think about what we might be passing down in our DNA that we have no idea of. Are we unintentionally programming our future children with our thoughts and expierences. Is this a reason some children can do amazing things without being taught because they are using programmed DNA from somewhere in their predicessors history. Could past life memories be from the same? Interesting theory about programming on DNA, perhaps that’s what we’ve been doing all along.
