Seems to me that someone posted a thread on here a couple months back linking to a study done by the prestigious MIT ( 
) that seemed to indicate that, yes, DNA stores memories.
I remember this thread well too because I called Kentucker out for saying some shite like, "well since this is "MIT" we may need to take a more serious look at this."
Now here he is in this thread acting like none of that ever happened and this is something to laugh at.
frickin pathetic.

Calm down, BE. We need context. Search, find and link the subject thread before going all KSGamecock on me. The only “memories” that can be stored in DNA are genes. Genes are inherited instructions that affect the construction and maintenance of the body. They’re definitely not storehouses of experiential memories, though.
IIRC from the MIT thread, a claim has been made that changes in the expression of genes (epigenetics) can occur in individuals who can then pass this change on to their offspring.
The cell has been explored down to its atomic make-up and there aren’t any molecules whose functions are not known, especially in the DNA nucleus.
Everyday memories are stored in the brain because that’s where the neurons are. How they do it is still not clear but research continues.
