What kind of twins are you and your brother? It is kind of frightening that there might be a genetic clone of David G. out there. Two yabuts–yikes!

Be afraid, JR. Although no one (to my knowledge) has done a DNA work-up to confirm that we are identical twins (we were born in prehistoric times, remember), we have always assumed that we were — e.g., one placenta, impossible to tell us apart the first few years (see our Siblings Page).
There is one very big difference these days: Arthur J. Giacalone, Esq., has no website, so the world may not know that he specializes in representing home owners in land use and zoning cases — usually involving development encroaching on their homes — in Western New York. And, frankly, I’ve never met a harder-working, more-caring, more skilled lawyer.
