I am most sceptical of his docherence calculations. I cannot see a DNA molecule maintaining a coherent state for the immense time-scales he requires. While I believe that a truly isolated system of ANY length-sale can maintain perpetual "external" coherence, I do not see how DNA can be regarded as even approximately isolated.
Perhaps one of biologists could describe the nature of the DNA's nuclear environment, but I don't imagine it's vacuum!
