Aha, so it wasn't just a joke after all. <
>How did you get Brahmin from Kerala?>
> Regarding guilt for rejecting India, I was reading through this which I found interesting [although I have read screeds of psychological stuff over the decades including university text books not just silly magazine pop-psych. ] andrewatkin.blogspot.co.nz The part further down about paternalism and the general psychological bounds all people experience as part of early traumas applies to rejecting one's country in favour of an adoptive "father" though they don't put it in those terms.

Stockholm Syndrome and such like can also be explained by the explanations therein.

Ok dv/dw, put us out of our misery please.

It might have been you who elaborated on my Ashkenazi origin theories which is a combination of north west India genetic origins - a small part of it, with bedouin, and across as far as Morocco, including Palestinian, according to the haplotype analysis of Ashkenazis.

As you know, there are some absurdly smart mathematical wizards from north west India and migration to Kerala would not be out of the question. Adopting dv/dw as a nickname lends itself to such mathematical adulation.

Actually, linguistically, we should be able to pin him down as tightly as his haplotypes would do. But I don't have the detailed knowledge to do so.

Incidentally, my genes include a dose of Calcutta area from somewhere in the past according to 23andMe, which is my most easterly ancestral origin. Plus a good dose of middle eastern origins.

How about he's a Jewish emigre from Cochin where there was a considerable Jewish presence? en.wikipedia.org He seems to not be linguistically a native english user. "dv/dw" puts his age as from many decades ago. It's not a modern nickname even for the mathematically inclined. Same for all the quantum stuff.
