Last spring you mentioned you planned to use Lab Corp. Is that what you ended
up with? I believe Lab Corp is well regarded in the forensic field -- they
are involved in DNA testing of WTC victims -- but they may not be aware of
how genealogists like to collaborate on results. Perhaps they would give you
the numbers if you explained the ways we use DNA tests (plus publicizing
their company name along with the results).
