I am actually well beyond any desire to convince
anyone to test for the R1b S-series. There has been
enough here to either tantalize people or cause them
to say well, interesting, but not worth pursuing. Of 5
Italians tested, two are S28+ and three are S21+. That
alone should be enough to perk peoples ears up.

My reply:

That certainly perks my ears up! I was aware of only
two S21+ results for Italian paternal lines. This is
the first mention I've seen in your postings of a
third positive result for an Italian paternal line. I
know that another Sicily Project member had ordered
the test this fall, but he has not responded to my
e-mails asking what his test results were.

Is the third S21+ result you mentioned above this
Sicily Project member or someone else? Frankly, since
his haplotype, with only 12 markers, was classed as
WAMH by FTDNA, I thought he would likely be S21-, but
possibly S28+.
