Nov 22nd, 2017 : US Migration by DNA
Ancestry.Com has been gathering a gigantic data base on people. Are they under the NSA now?
People go to them because they are trying to find out who they are by finding out who their ancestors were. Newsflash Bunkie, you are who you make yourself, regardless if your descended from a King or criminal. But I digress. Ancestry has convinced a lot of people (770,000), to submit a DNA sample and from that data has created this migration map. Quote:
I wonder, as they moved west for more room did they seek the same climate so they could farm the same way they'd learned from pop and grandpop?

I live in one of the big, Finnish dots--and believe me, you don't need a genetic test to know it.

On a moderately-related note, I just got a class action settlement from the genetic testing folks at "23 and Me" (they got sued for giving people "medical advice" without actually being doctors, so now they have to be more vague when they give you the basic facts of your genes, whatever.) But it's not a cash settlement, it's a $40-off coupon--six of them to be precise--and everyone in my family has already done it. PM me if anyone wants them.
