It's not an either/or situation. All types of posts are welcome, as long as
they touch on the subject of DNA and genealogy. But I can't resist pointing
out that the maths formulae do have practical consequences, as you have seen
-- for example, should one pay to have a 25 marker test if the 12 marker test
does/doesn't match?

Anyway, feel free to bring up whatever topics you wish!
