Well, if we're going to do it just by ýour chances of having identical DNA with someone else, you are going to have to factor in your chances of being a identical or conjoined twin, and this number is going to go down sharply.

Ive heard 8.1 million...

False - The odds of that happening are one in 223 (for sperm cell) times 1 in 223 (for egg cell) = 1 in 246. That's one in 7.03687442 × 1013 ... 1 in 70 trillion.

Sorry that I'm not spot on. There's lots of wrong/possibly right answers. Point is, no freaking way are you going to be identical

Wouldn't that even go up from environment influencing your conscious and behaviors?

My parents could have given birth to a doctor or a pilot or even maybe a garbage man. But they and had me. A deadbeat

Based on what calculations? That number seems to imply that you can get recombination independently between every gene with a realistic probability, which just isn't the case, it also negates the effect imprinting has on expression, as well as other factors determining your phenotype. I agree that it is more than one million, but I want to see where you are getting those numbers from if you want to be as presumptuous as to use the 'False' meme.
