   I would be interested (but not sufficiently interested to get   
   permission from their parents to actually try it) so see what results   
   would come back if my twin grandchildren were tested. They are not   
   identical (and of different sexes), and are different in every possible   
   way: my grandson is fair and very British-looking (he looks very like   
   me at the same age); my granddaughter is dark and exotic-looking. Their   
   behaviour patterns are also very different. However, all that may be   
   just skin-deep, as the characters we notice are the ones we can see,   
   and 99% of the underlying genomes may be essentially the same.   
   Incidentally, they have grandparents from three continents and four   
   countries.
