Clarification
I wanted to clarify the whole "twins having the same fingerprint" thing. The main characteristics of the prints are the same – the ridges and whorls – however, environment plays a role in forming the minutae of a print, so in that respect, they are different. In other words, I couldn't beat a murder rap by blaming it on my sister!

That was a valuable lesson in twinology. I cannot believe people would actually ask if you get yourselves mixed up...I had to laugh at that one!
Thanks for clarifying on the fingerprints. How'd you know I'd be thinking murder rap? Very interesting. By the way, I can't answer the who is smarter question, but I can vouch for your intelligence since I am very familiar with your brain:-)
