Could this really be possible, think about it all the snowflakes that have fallen over the millions of years how could it be possible that there have never been 2 the same, better yet how could this be proven?

I have heard this before, but not sure how or whether anyone could scientifically prove it to be the case. Just thinking of all those 'scientists' out there collecting all these snowflakes and how they would stop them melting. LOL

I do believe that is true. They are like fingerprints, and it is pretty amazing.

maybe it is possible but i'm not really sure, but maybe it's similar with the spiders' web, i've read somewhere that no spider's web is alike.

i think the chances of that are the same as the chance of there never having been two people just a like.
