: Because of mistakes in genetics, clones can often be 94% different than the original.

Where did you get this information? That would be a higher percentage then a couple mating and producing offspring. The latest research I read stated that there would be a genetic difference of the mitochondrial DNA. Other wise, the genome should be identical, barring spontanoes mutation. Otherwise, the procedure is screwed up, and it is not a clone
