It's basically like he's pointed to loads of interesting epigenetic phenomena, which are interesting enough as they are, but I don't really see where he's going with this. It appears to be a statement of "Genes alone cannot explain development/physiology, ergo there is something else co-ordinating everything, including genes". At the moment he's trying to pin chromatin biology as the source of everything else, including gene expression.
