15 Minutes of Fame Winds Down

I think the press coverage on this topic is winding down and I will soon revert this blog to its original purpose (investment/accounting related).  I will periodically post any updates although I will not be seeking a third opinion - just confirmation of any pending results of tests.  Family Tree DNA has posted a larger set of "Genghis Khan" markers on their website at:

In addition to the fact that I am confirmed haplogroup R1a (not C3); looking at the broader 25 markers noted here it is pretty evident I match on only 12 (source www.ysearch.org).  I only wish I had all of this data a few weeks ago!

It has certainly been interesting and I still plan to visit Mongolia.  I just won't be meeting any long lost relatives there.
