By the subject-line into to this post
I don't think I have to break my back
with writing here in its body.
Anyhow, my proposal has to do with the
seemingly (or plausibly) too specific, to be explainable by
"conventional DNA determined genetics",
similarities between behavior affecting turn-of-events
and choices made in the (presumably!) since birth separated
and adopted-out identical twins.
Therein lies my speculative point and hypothetical significance of "histone/chromatin coded" epigenetic imprinting;
Or, rather than calling it "imprinting", I might be better off describing it as "a mechanism of intracellular interfacing between individuals and their environment - one that has more subtle and fragile heritable effects than those caused by genetic mutation; and/or that this mechanism has a slightly broader scope of meaning than it is usually thought (and taught) that "genomic imprinting" has.
