But neither is DNA "altogether physically manifest." There is a sense in which DNA is not physical at all, its sense as an idea and a pretty darn useful one, as it turns out. The point is, the term DNA refers both to "code" and the physical carrier of the code (i.e., the DNA molecule). Yet typically we do not draw this distinction. Anyhoot, you can "fractionate," or "reduce" a molecule all day long; but you cannot "fractionate" an idea.
Indeed! Thank you so very much for sharing your insights, dearest sister in Christ, and thank you for your encouragements!

There are many things wrong with this picture. [LOLOL!!!]
Assertions that "you're doing it wrong" seem to be as common as dirt.
Exactly what the "right way" to do it is seems to elude explicit articulation.
