This is kind of interesting, now that they can figure out DNA stuff, they're looking for what happened to the "Lost Colony" in Roanoke.
For those who don't know, it just disappeared. It was there one year and everybody was gone the next.

"What we now need is to establish if there are any living family descendants of those lost colonists living here in the U.K., and from them produce a reference library of DNA to match the American results against,"

That's cool, but I wonder if it'll tell them if it was via the mother or the father.
Because, since I have a low opinion of people, I figure the men lived long enough to be slow roasted and eaten while the women, the cute ones anyway, were kept around.

Maybe I'm being a romantic, but I figure the Roanoke Indians were smarter than their cousins to the north, the ones who let the white man "just take that land over their, really, that's all we want".

H/T, I forget, I emailed it to myself last week and forgot. Probably Drudge or Boortz since I didn't put that in the email and they don't need a link from me. At least I remembered to put the h/t in before I posted. So that's something.
