“Each cell has over 3 Gbits of error-free information “
Obviously posted by a misguided person.
But this is not an ordinary memory storage device. Each coil is only 3.4 nanometers across (by comparison, the human hair is 50,000 nanometers thick), and, if stretched out would be approximately 80 inches long. Yet if this information were stored in books, they would fill 48 feet of library shelves or, in computer terms, over 3 gigabits of data. Yet we cannot even see it with the naked eye! It took over 100 engineers 5 years to write this much code for Microsoft, and they are still de-bugging it!
The truly amazing part, however, is what is written in this code. On June 26, 2000, in a ceremony at the White House, President Clinton was to say, Today, we are learning the language in which God created life. We are gaining ever more awe for the complexity, the beauty, and the wonder of Gods most divine and sacred gift. Where else would this code come from? In the same ceremony, Dr. Frances C. Collins, who led the effort to decode the entire human DNA, was to remark, Its a happy day for the world. It is humbling for me, and awe-inspiring, to realize that we have caught the first glimpse of our own instruction book, previously known only to God.
Somebody IS misguided, indeed . . .
