Oh, I am sure you are waiting for the data with baited breath.

Genomic data has been an invaluable aid in understanding the role of non-genetic regulatory elements and what, on a biological basis, sets humans apart from other primates.

Why do you wish that the world would ignorant of genomic data? Your claim that it is of no use is obviously an abysmal error. Are there many other scientific subjects the inquiry into you wish to curtail? Somehow I don't think it is the utility of the data that makes you oppose it.

No need to get all pissy and defensive.

Once a year the genome guys come out with some hysterical declaration about mapping something or other. And at some point it may all lead to break thrus, but give me millions of dollars with no definitive time-line and I'll give you a list of ways humans are set apart "...from other primates." And my list will have color pictures.
