Subject: [DNA] news article about BYU collection event in FL
Date: Tue, 6 Feb 2001 05:57:24 EST
An article appeared in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune which gives some reactions
pro and con about the BYU study. I believe there is one factual error in the
story: it says "As for complaints that the study could be used to perpetuate
discrimination, Perego says it could do just the opposite. Only 2 percent of
the average gene is different from everyone else's." I have heard numbers
more on the order of one in a thousand differences.
