gollark: Oh, nitrogen bases, not nitrogen based.
gollark: I think.
gollark: DNA contains nitrogen.
gollark: <@308493066879369219> If you can make hexagonal biological encoding mechanisms work, you get to name them, Mr "I actually know some biochemistry".
gollark: DNA already has two strands. Six would be twice that.
