Maybe it has some purpose or not. G3k didn't guess though. He claims that all DNA had purpose. I think his theories should be held to the same standards that he wants other theories to comply with. What is purpose of the extra DNA in tetraploids or in XXY or XYY individuals? What is the purpose of the viral DNA that chimps and humans have in their genome in the exact same place?

Its speculation. To "prove" that all DNA has a purpose, you'd have to show what proteins are encoded by for every single base pair. Or show that they did something else, like the preservation of the ends of the chromosomes for reproduction.

While the automatoin of the reading of the human genome went faster than anyone thought, automating the process of decoding an entire organisms genome is a vastly larger and more complicated project. I'm thinking this an application for these new biological computers. What a mess to set up though. I don't see how this can happen in my lifetime.

You are correct I did not guess, I knew and gave proof that your statement was wrong - and that evolutionists who had been cackling since the genome project that they had found the solution to the problems in their theory were again proven wrong by real science.
