Looked and didn't see this here, thought it might be appreciated:

I must admit I really don't understand it all. It led me to look up how much DNA one person's body contains, which is apparently between 6 and 60 grams.  I don't understand the maths on that either, so I'm utterly useless in discussing this topic until I find out more.  Blows my mind, though.  Learned a bit from the read.

Why do you think it is one never hears of anyone spontaneously combusting anymore?

Alien intervention?  Better healthcare?  Corporate lobbying?  Maybe it was a ruse in the first place...

Whatever the reason, it's been plaguing me for all of an hour or so.
