Their Ancestry is done in Utah, they dont actually do that in Seattle. be careful - MANY people didnt like their results because its completely ambiguous. Ask the sales rep thats been their the longest - she did the Ancestry Profile on her own Mom and it was essentially bogus.

It takes a couple of weeks, because Genelex outsources their DNA testing to a lab in Utah ( for Ancestry) and Univ of Louisville KY ( for DRT CYP450) the only thing they do in house is Paternity.

We all trace back to one common female ancestor - African Eve 120,000 years ago.

I am interested in the software used to process DNS samples, very sofisticated, and interesting. Any idea's !

One question that does come to my mind about all europions being descendents of 7 common mothers, is where did they descend from ? and does this eventually take us to one common mother and father ?

Hey Tina, when you get your results back they arent going to be able to link you to a triple homicide will they?

All I ask is that you please don't go on Maury and have the results read by him. =)

But, this is very intereting stuff. I'm curious about the results.

I'm wondering about my ancestry, as well. Although, I don't know if I would say "swab, please."

No, I have no temple for Tina, nor any images of her around...that would be a little too much, even for me.

I have nothing but the utmost respect for her as a beautiful writer, journalist, and host. Most importantly, I would never do anything to offend her.

If she is displeased with my comments, I'll drop the goddess material.

"swab please!" :D

Somehow Genelex seemed like a very commercial outfit. I always thought DNA testing was a bit more intricate/sophisticated. Maybe it was the "hair swish" or Mr. Moonwook´s lack of insight. Tech wise, the installations didn´t seem as impressive as I would have imagined either. Oh well... interesting and different.

How come you decided to visit Genelex in the first place?

Re: Tina has great genes!

maxwell — Fri, 24 Mar 2006 03:04:49 GMT

Arztek, is all this goddess stuff really necessary?

Next you´ll admit you have a temple of your "goddess" at home! :S

j/k

We all know about the conspiracy.

Wait a minute...you mean the non-evil Tina doesn't like to post on message boards? Does she play video games? Does she have an Xbox 360, yet?

Talk to ya when you're 50? Would you even consider a "Mini-me" clone?

Re: Re: The results?

Tina — Fri, 24 Mar 2006 01:32:39 GMT

"Hey leave Tina alone"! Oh wait, I am Tina. Or am I just her evil clone who likes to post on message boards....hmmmmmmmm

oh, and i dare say it's even faster in IE7

Re: A question on the article

kristine — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 23:17:40 GMT

Standard DNA test works like this
Day 1- log in samples
Day 2 - extract DNA - this can take longer for non-standard samples like bones or kleenex
Day 3 - Gel has to run overnight
Day 4 - Analysis
Day 5 - review

The reason for the lag. The analysis is run by a machine. These machines cost about the same to run a tray if it contains 1 sample or maximum capacity (100 samples, 386 samples, depends on the machine). So as testing becomes more commonly ordered, it processed more quickly.

Very interesting video!

I like the variety.

Re: The results?

Arztek — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 22:32:40 GMT

Hey, I'll still love you even when your fifty. ;)

The results should be cool. I'm wondering what European ancestry your decended from. One of you is pefect, no clone could ever replace you, my goddess.

oh the possiblities

vbRunner — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 22:23:27 GMT

i just love that line in Lost in Space (the newer one) where the genetic engineer tells the military guy that he's the one that determines whether he grows a third arm. and to think that's only 20-30 years away.

njcu — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 22:14:50 GMT

makes you wonder if that's "evil" Tina trying to confuse us.... I know your game "evil" Tina we're on to you...

Re: Slow Load Time.. cept in IE

vbRunner — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 22:14:45 GMT

yes. and if you want the firefox functionality, download the msn toolbar. it gives IE that cool tabbing ability that firefox has.

The results?

Tina — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 21:56:15 GMT

I'm excited to get the results back in a few weeks. As far as cloning, hmmm - I think one of me is just fine. But talk to me when I'm fifty. :)

Re: Excellent video!! OMG, is that 4th Ave?

V360 — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 20:41:54 GMT

I used walk by that Starbucks EVERY day to go to The Art Institute of Seattle.

Man, I wish I could edit my comments, instead of posting like this.

Re: Excellent video!! OMG, is that 4th Ave?

V360 — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 20:27:34 GMT

Ancestry, not ancestory.

I just dl the videos in WMV. Yeah, it's a long wait, but they work.

Slow Load Time.. cept in IE

iamdw — Thu, 23 Mar 2006 20:07:18 GMT

Flock / FireFox / Opera all either take a long time to load the QT stream, or semm to give up. IE seems rather snappy with a nearly immediate first frame loaded. All other browsers seem to hang for a bit with the Quicktime logo...

Oh, this is Microsoft based? *deciding whether or not to use IE for a single website*
