BTW, have you ever seen a japanese light novel? Those look like they'd suit colour ereaders and visual novels may do well on colour epub3 readers. |

Pixel Qi is dead. So is any other alternate tech to eInk and LCD. All those wonderful announcements at CES have come to nothing. Until we get actual products using these alternate screen technologies, I'll consider them non-existent. Too many promises with nothing to show for it.

Possible, but not guaranteed.
They start identical, but are then subject to random mutations. And with identical female twins, a different X chromosome could be activated in each cell, meaning their active genome would be different. http://www.scientificamerican.com/ar...-not-identical http://www.livescience.com/24694-ide...identical.html |

What do you think the mutations mutate?

What I'm saying is that identical twins start with the same genome. If you claim something different you are welcome to provide proof. You are just being argumentative and cantankerous as usual.

Everything mutates. It's the way DNA works. Wanna go back and edit your post some more?
