long gone, Twas ever thus, you are different = you are invader. This seems to be programmed into the genes of many animals since any that look different are hounded out of the group by the mainstream animals, even primates. A mixed offspring can have a quality called 'hybrid vigor' and be superior in some respects to any of the forebears groups. Happens with animals or men. Some animals form herds, same with men, some are lone family types. I think this is at the root of the problems in Africa. Africans are a lot more tribal than most other peoples. They are used to killing neighbouring tribes(who went after their food and women) and they are used to having a chief who ran things who got there by force. Now they do this 24/7. Bill
