You have about 4096 ancestors of that generation and about 200,000 relatives of your generation descended from that generation. But that's just probability, so it could be that you have millions of relatives descended from that generation, or you could be one of not many left - an endangered species. Genghis Khan apparently has umpty millions of descendants with something like 7% of men able to trace their Y chromosome back to him. Google knows: <Zerjal et al. [2003] [6] identified a Y-chromosomal lineage present in about 8% of the men in a large region of Asia (about 0.5% of the men in the world). The paper suggests that the pattern of variation within the lineage is consistent with a hypothesis that it originated in Mongolia about 1,000 years ago (thus several generations prior to the birth of Genghis). Such a spread would be too rapid to have occurred by genetic drift, and must therefore be the result of selection. The authors propose that the lineage is carried by likely male-line descendants of Genghis Khan and his close male relatives, and that it has spread through social selection. Both due to the power that Khan and his direct descendants held and a society which allowed one man to have many children through having multiple wives and widespread rape in conquered cities.[7] According to Family Tree DNA, Genghis Khan is believed to have belonged to Haplogroup C3. The 25 Marker Y-DNA Profile of Genghis Khan released by Family Tree DNA is: DYS number 385a 385b 388 389i 389ii 390 391 392 393 394 426 437 439 447 448 449 454 455 458 459a 459b 464a 464b 464c 464d Haplotype 12 13 14 13 29 25 10 11 13 16 11 14 10 26 22 27 12 11 18 8 8 11 11 12 16> Since the father of all non-Africans left Africa only about 25,000 years ago, the selection process has obviously been very rapid. These days, women conduct the eugenics programs, getting rid of unsuitable DNA by the ton, eliminating them from the gene pool. In the past, death by conquest was a major method for eliminating genes but it was the male method of bulk murder of opposing gangs. With 6 billion of us now alive, the eugenics programme is proceeding faster than ever with more DNA mutations being created and selection of the good ones being very quick. No wonder the Flynn Effect is so rapid. Women are merciless. Mqurice

Quebec "city" was only about 900 people in 1640: <From 1629 to 1632, the city briefly passed into possession of the English. The Jesuits arrived in 1635 and the Ursulines and Augustines in 1639. In 1636, Charles Huault de Montmagny became the settlement’s governor, who presided over expansion of the settlement and construction of its first church, Notre Dame de la Paix (Our Lady of Peace). Surrounding the settlement were various parcels of farm land. By 1663, the year during which Quebec became the capital city of New France, the population of Quebec and its surrounding farm lands had reached 1,950 people > Look how quickly countries have progressed economically and in life expectancy: youtube.com Where to from here? My prediction is that the trends of the last 10,000 years will continue apace. The trends of the last 40 years will go even faster. The trends of the last 10 years will dominate; OFDM Rulz ok ... Cyberspace Rulz... Hooray for Julian Assange. Good for Kevin Rudd, down with Julia Gillard and Hilarious Clinton. International political analyst calls USA Vice President Joe Biden a low tech moron: <http://www.smh.com.au/national/us-calls-assange-a-hightech-terrorist-20101220-1938a.html Dylam Welch December 21, 2010 THE US Vice-President, Joe Biden, has labelled Julian Assange a ‘‘high-tech terrorist’’, and Prime Minister Julia Gillard appears comfortable with the description. The escalation in language from the US coincides with WikiLeaks and media outfits releasing highly embarrassing, secret cables written by US diplomats. On Sunday, Senator Biden, in an interview on NBC talk show Meet the Press, was asked if he thought Assange was similar either to a high-tech terrorist or a whistleblower. He replied: ‘‘I would argue that it’s closer to being a high-tech terrorist.’’ Advertisement: Story continues below Senator Biden, who has a history of making off-the-cuff remarks, was echoing remarks by prominent Republican senator Mitch McConnell, who this month said: ‘‘I think the man is a high-tech terrorist.’’ When asked yesterday if she supported the remarks, Ms Gillard would not be drawn, merely repeating her view that the actions of Mr Assange and WikiLeaks were ‘‘grossly irresponsible’’. ‘‘That’s my analysis. I’m not going to adopt anybody’s form of words; that’s my form of words, that’s what I believe,’’ she said. When asked if she was uncomfortable about an Australian citizen being labelled a terrorist by the US, she said: ‘‘Mr Assange can obviously deal with these questions himself. He has world-class access to the media if he seeks to respond on that matter.’’ Senator Biden said in his interview that Assange had not only put lives in jeopardy, he had made it difficult for the US to conduct business with its allies and friends. ‘‘There is a desire now to meet with me alone rather than have staff in the room,’’ he said. ‘‘It makes things more cumbersome.’’> Meanwhile, The New Zealand Herald, also obviously "high tech terrorists" has been publishing WikiLeaks. Joe Biden is clearly a fool. Julia Gillard is obviously a criminal. Now I am a high tech terrorist too: nzherald.co.nz <By Audrey Young 5:30 AM Tuesday Dec 21, 2010 Share Email Print EXPAND Defence Minister Wayne Mapp refused to discuss the matter with media. Photo / Mark Mitchell Labour and National governments have unsuccessfully tried to get Japan to join in the New Zealand-led provincial reconstruction team in Afghanistan's Bamyan province, confidential cables from the United States Embassy in Wellington show. They suggest New Zealand thought Japan was afraid its troops would not perform well enough and was hiding behind its constitutional limitations - which prohibit any act of war. They also mention attempts to get Singapore and Malaysia involved. New Zealand has a historic defence relationship with the latter two through the Five Power Defence Arrangement, which has been going for about 40 years. But the cables, released by WikiLeaks, suggest New Zealand was trying to deepen defence ties with Japan, albeit unsuccessfully. It is not clear whether the moves to lobby Japan were at the request of the US or New Zealand-initiated. Defence Minister Wayne Mapp last night refused to discuss the matter, saying he did not conduct diplomacy through the media. But a visiting high-ranking US official in April 2008, deputy assistant secretary Thomas Christensen, suggested that "any perceived enhancement of government of New Zealand-government of Japan relations will likely spur the Chinese to respond in kind to the Japanese ... so New Zealand can play a positive role in encouraging better Sino-Japanese relations by improving its own relationship with Japan". ... continued... > Now Silicon Investor is a high tech terrorist and YOU are a high tech terrorist if you clicked and read and recorded that on your computer in cache. What a tremendous public assistance WikiLeaks is. Hooray for Julian Assange. Down with Clinton, Biden, Gillard, Huckabee and other international conspiracist murderous criminals. They should be prosecuted for crimes against humanity in the International Court of Justice and executed - live by the sword ... hoist by their own petard .... Mqurice
