DNA profiling (or genetic fingerprinting) has proved to be a revolutionary tool for forensic investigators as a means to identify potential suspects, exonerate the innocent and convict the guilty. But, like any forensic technique, it has its limitations. One limitation is in cases involving identical twins, something that has raised technical, legal and ethical problems — until now.

"Here I am JD, the ghost in the machine"
He is probably right - I certainly can see a way that a certain fruit based technology company could effectively corner the market in foreign exchange trading by using their truly gargantuan cash reserves as an "all the currencies there are" hedge. Plus the big pile of cash could then be classified as a reserve not a profit and therefore not subject to tax.

Quote: When I started my role I missed one business trip as my wife was pregnant, fell down the stairs and had to be hospitalised – this was listed as a ‘performance issue’ on my record and brought up during a one on one with management as a major ‘miss’ on my behalf.
In fairness, that was a performance issue for his wife. She should have used jedi skills to defeat the laws of gravity
