We can look at the totality of the "Gaia process" as a superset similarity to the genotypical and phenotypical expressions.

How can you even dream that something as limited as a human brain will be used to review, watch, or elsewise assimilate data in 10,000 years???

That would make us "containers" of information we know not of. As an aside thought, wonder if another Race could have stored information in our DNA 100K years ago, and is just now retrieving it ?

Second storing info on DNA like material for thousands of years for archival purposes presents even more extraordinary challenges plus how are we in the future going to make a sense of this ZETTABYTE Dbase. NOW, I am having problem watching 300 channels! A FREE database for the whole world, that is a monumental achievement.
