Talking Turns out I'm 1.2% Neanderthal!

Just got the results from a DNA testing program sponsored by Nat. Geo. at www.genographic.com

You do a swab of your cheek and send it in. Results in 6-8 weeks. My DNA was in the first wave to leave Africa, wandered around central Asia for a while, made its way to Europe and settled in the UK. Also most closely allied with German and British. No surprise on the British, family history goes back to Scotland about 1,000 years. Apparently some of my ancestors nailed some Neanderthal and Denisovan tail along the way. BTW, most non-blacks have some of both in their genes.
