Heart to heart conversation
I saw a program on TV a few weeks ago that claimed some heart transplant patients ended up taking on the characteristics of the former owner.
The evidence seemed quite convincing, when compared to a lot of supposed 'psychic' events. This to me seems to suggest something else - namely that as the program says, the heart may store memory. If body tissue was like a hologram, then this would make sense and would tie in with genes being cellular recorders of the environment as a new theory in this field suggests (posted on it once but can't remember what they call it offhand).
It says that the genes don't just pump out Model T's into infinity but take account of external influence to modify design (mini-minds, dealing with input as well as output).
One question I personally would have is, is it just donated hearts that throw up this quirk or do other organs display the same characteristic? (Anybody out there know? Not mentioned on the program).
Interesting side issue - if it's only the heart that does this, could heart tissue be the best material for cloning an individual?
