PURE SHITE

[happybois]

this only tracks the predominant traits. this nasty pascal triangle that is a family tree is not represented in this oversimplified presentation. way to go ibm

ok ...thousands of people freely agree to give dna samples(a lot of them pay for it also)thus creating a huge database wich is handled and kept by a research society ,a huge corporation and an institution called Wait family foundation.....is this frightening or what???The funny part is that "Didi"is astonished to hear that her ancestors hunted wooly mamoths... why didnt they just order some pizza???

@nasosv No, not frightening at all to me. I'll probably contribute, myself. In the relatively brief time we have on this earth I can't imagine a much better use for a single day's pay than to learn something fascinating and heretofore unknown about how I got here.
