All blacks should have DNA testing to discern both biological heritage and national heritage. For most whites, the same is true except that genealogy files are able to be found, but difficult at times, and always arduous.

By mid-2007 expect someone to put "nano" in front of DNA matching and get $10 million from venture capitalists just for the name ( if you take my idea, I want 50% ) ... ... people are interested in their ancestry. It used to be you could do those family tree things and then tell people you were descended from a King of England or something. You and 16 million other people. I want to tell people I am descended from Archimedes. Statistically there's a good chance some part of me came from him, right??? Dr. Lei,
