I can tell you one thing, it doesn't have to do with the skill of the "detective". For the initial question I'm not completely sure, probably also varies from country to country. My knowledge of US law is based on Boston Legal and Law&Order, but what I figured from that, is that you can't charge two people with the same crime - unless they commited it together or something. Which one could very well assume when there are twins involved. Someone should probably be able to solve this with a little googling, or better founded law knowledge |

Still, you're right. As I said, my law knowledge is very limited and I apparently mixed up a few things, I was thinking of the double jeopardy clause, which of course only applies AFTER someone has been convicted.

Identical twins are, for all intents and purposes, 100% DNA identical sans any somatic mutations over the course of their lives.
However now they're trying to implement what is called antigenic typing based on an individual's HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen). While identical twins have pretty much identical DNA, their antigenic distribution as a result of some degree of randomization of surface antigen and glycoprotein molecules during the maturation of human lymphocytes which develops in childhood and remains more or less the same in adulthood. So in essence this antigen typing is unique per individual due to the random aspect, which is why no two people are a perfect HLA match. Twins are the closest HLA match because the genetic code behind their surface proteins are more similar, but still not a perfect match.

It might be, but difficult. In general, being able to read and write a language allows you to see sentence structure and practice associating the word(s) with what the word(s) represent. By writing a character or word, you can consciously repeat the word to yourself. Psychologically, it's easy to remember something when there are multiple stimuli associated with it.

That said, by not learning the moon runes, you are cutting yourself off a bit. Going to Japan without being able to read signposts, or labels on food is probably... difficult. But illiterate people have been learning to speak new languages for centuries so... |

For obvious reasons I don't think they've done many tests on that, much less tests which would give exact values. Not the sort of research you'd want to publish either..
Does anyone know if there's a verb for the act of 'turning your head away with a harumph'? Kinda like going 'tsun', but instead of lifting your head you turn your head. Or just spin right around. If that makes sense.

The films starts predominantly where the anime begins, although skipping over some of the main characters back story about how he grew up. It's like watching the anime again to be honest.
To be exact, it begins in the Golden Age arc of the series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berserk_%28manga%29

There's this piece of classical music that I'm sure everyone's heard but for the life of me I can't remember what it's called
It goes like this: tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan tan... Anyone know the name?
