Totally agree.
My point is that while DNA can be used to encode and store information (that's how we create new peeps,) the DNA in our cells can't store much.
We're basically carrying around little flash drives from 5 years ago in our cells, which are already stuffed full of "go make babies" commands. Not much room for the Akashic records in that. You'd need some massive cloud infrastructure for that bad boy.
It depends on if the 'data' is compressed or 'zipped', Alien/creators might use .god file format instead of .zip or .rar
Personally I think a human is a poor choice as a data holder 'vessel' if it were me I would use something much longer lived if it has to be organic, a Tree for example can live for hundreds of times longer than a person (5000 years I believe), and I understand that some species of shark can live to 500 years. Maybe some simpler forms could be even older like lichens and stuff. Who knows how old some things might be in really cold habitats like lake Vostok?
Maybe that is why ET is always allegedly saying look after the planet?
It's Friday! Lighten up, everybody!
Lyrics
Have you seen the saucers?
Have you seen the saucers?
Do you know the people out there
Who aren't happy with the way that we care
For the Earth Mother
Have you seen the saucers
Tranquility Base
There goes the neighborhood
American garbage dumped in space and no room left for brotherhood
Have you seen our saucers?
See our lights in your western skies, California?
The rainbow skies
The government tells you another missile is flying
Have you any idea why they're lying to you?
To your faces
Did they tell you?
Have you seen our saucers?
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da
Your mother needs you, now she's getting old
Her face was pretty, but you let her go
Have you seen our saucers?
Star children on the back road to salvation
Children of the forest, and child of the woodstock nation
You gotta' care for the needs of your planet
Catch the dawn that once was there
First-born atomic generation
Open the door, don't you know that's what it's for
Hey, come and join us on the other side of the sun
Also If it does not have to be an organic storage medium, I have heard it said that there are ginormous crystals in and around the core of the earth, and these might have ideal properties for storing information.
