I dont know if this helps if not please ignore, I mean no bad will.
There IS a difference between the effects of gene expression and the placement chromatin wise of the same. Because Davison had used the term "de-repression" I suspected that he developed some of his thoughts at the time Monod was developing his notion of "physiological time". That was why it took some time before we clearly communicated, as I,BSM, but perhaps not he, DO think that there might be PHYSICAL gene action-at-a-distance. Gladyshev describes something a bit narrowly restricted in this sense, when he talks about effects beyond mere contact with DNA, that reach across scales larger than the nano magnitude; but these are unproven :so: far as I know. I had not said that your thinking was "frightening" but I did judge that it is more about the genes themselves, whether silenced or not (through some kind of operon repression etc OR NOT), and NOT about the EFFECTS AFTER EXPRESSION of the same Heritability which in the cite *were* located near telemeres. I would agree with the admins that "protected" me in that thread and are doing some seperation here that evc can not let a sinlge word (that might be interpreted differently (effect vs effects)) to result) in name calling or admonishment, as was the apol0getic I might have wrote in a departmental setting that EVC is not a faculty of/in/aboard/about/aboveetc, being the NEW ONLINE MEDIUM that (it)isis a bit different when one is posting immediately at the time of one's pen pale or then say out of sync and out of geography with the same. You can note that John did not answer me directly as to my OWN interest to discuss single vs double strands but instead asked,,,, the ancillary absurdity (theater) which is not something prepositionally I am intended to reply or respond to materially.

This seems to be a rare instance of my not being able to follow Brad's reasonings purely because of my very weak biology background.
I look forward to JAD's responce to the above cited.

were not directly addressed in the interchange between John and me, Scott, as it never came up if temporality AND utility (not the contradiction I offered as in the prior) were within the time actually.
