RE: ORCID - unique identifiers for bibliographers

I do have an identical twin brother, and hashing the DNA sequence collides more 
regularly than either random or MAC-based interface-identifiers in IPv6.

Also, he doesn't have the same opinions.

Since this has turned out to be ambiguous, I have decided to instead use a
SHA-256 hash of my DNA sequence:

How does your identical twin brother feel about this?

His opinion is identical to my own.
