Anyway, clearly I missed out on the bulk of this discussion (been away in Italy for a week... and if there's any room for joking about background, I don't know how that nation descends from the Romans

Sapiens has covered pretty much everything, and he kicks my social scientific ass (and I have no idea what his genetic background is, but I'd be willing to be he's a damn good sociologist, statistician, demographer, or something of the like... professor?).
