Their diagrams appear to be saying that they're going back from the future...and yet they are long past the need for DNA. Clearly this is due to their superior technology such as the gravity vortex on page 26.

Also I'm disappointed that it's taken them this long to include the golden ration in their design speculations...

So long guy who seems to be in every show I've ever watched. You will be missed(on tv).
