We are on the verge of some really interesting discoveries. DNA analysis will tell us tons about our ancestors and how each of us are related, where they came from, when they migrated, etc.

It would be nice if the test were cheap and timely such that a portion of the world's population could have their DNA cataloged. Would genealogy research easy.

I think National Geographic has a program and they'll do it for $99.00. I'll see if I can find a link.

Prsent genealogical research is based on the less than tenable theory that a woman's husband was always the biological father of her children. DNA research may put a crimp in this theory.

I thought it was a break through when we all decided that Carvel was related to Neanderthal. The story left out the part were Cintoon had the hots for the ice maiden.
