You've got to read these things more carefully. The pictures aren't pictures
of chromosomes, as just glancing at them will tell. They claim to be
pictures of "chromozones", whatever they are. Neither my dictionary, my
medical dictionary, nor any of my biology texts has any definition or
reference to "chromozone". I couldn't find any other reference to
"chromozone" on the Web, either.
Pardon me, but I just couldn't resist some sly comments below. Danny didn't
quote these, but I didn't know how else to distinguish them.

Well, they *are* multidimensional. 2, to be precise, just like any painting.
As to "most dynamic ... in history", let's see - the Sistine Chapel, the
Bible, the Analects, Monet's Waterlilies, Beethoven's late quartets, the
Declaration of Independece, the Origin of Species. I could go on for
chapters, literally. Methinks somebody doesn't get out much :-)

I swear, this is practically the mating call of the pseudoscientist.

Isn't it interesting that in spite of thousands of years of predictions the
aliens or transdimensional ghosties who supposedly made these couldn't
actually do it until shown how by a couple of Brit pranksters?

Gosh, just like somebody is *learning* to make them.
