Yes, you are correct to an extent. However, although our
appearances are unique in some way or another, the process of physical
uniquity can be mapped. The cells will replace themselves fully in X amount
of years. However, with thoughts and ideas, the stream of consciousness is
totally unpredictable and wholly changable at any instant. You may like to
