>But it's very unfashionable to think that DNA is destiny> Who is denying that DNA is not important. But how are you so confident about the distribution of the "intelligence" genotype among one population versus the others when many gaps, even if measurable, can be explained by culture, aspirations, opportunity, and history? Going back to chess and indians, you made a very quick assertion that Indians are different...because they have some north indian gene which made them so. But if you looked at the pool of chess grandmasters in 1975, there were zero Indian grandmasters. Then came along Vishawanath Anand, a child prodigy, blessed with good DNA. Now there are 18 grandmasters. So has the gene pool in India altered so much in the last generation? In USA, there is the strange situation when the Spelling Bee competition is dominated by kids of Indian origin. en.wikipedia.org >8 of the last 13 winners (from 1999 - 2011) have been Indian Americans reflecting the recent dominance of students of this community in this competition.[4] It is important to note that Indian Americans make up less than 1% of the population of the USA. Sukanya Roy was the latest Indian-American to win Scripps National Spelling Bee.> So are we seeing a huge DNA mutation in some Indian origin kids in USA who are suddenly becoming spelling bee champions? I guess those genes were dormant for many generations and suddenly become alive. Strangely, Indians in general when in India are very careless about spellings - ask anybody who has outsourced any work to India -Arun
