Well, I went to the Nat Geo DNA site to see if anything was new, and I
discovered that I had been upgraded from 3.9 percent Neanderthal to 4.0 percent
Neanderthal. I feel this was an excellent upgrade, and I'm going with it. <g>
PS: In the interest of full disclosure, National Geographic actually rates me
2.1 percent Neanderthal and 1.9 percent Denisovian. Denisovians are currently
classified as a close Neanderthal relative that has enough distinguishing
traits to rate a separate classification. I believe, based on many years of
being interested in this stuff and a degree in anthropology, that Denisovians
are Neanderthals, therefore I consider myself Neanderthal 4.0, which is 4
percent, which is the current maximum Neanderthal content of modern humans. I
am applying to Harley-Davidson for special Neanderthal status, in hopes they
will give me a new, tricked out bike of my choice. <g>
