I'm supposed to be from Central Europe, we will see. I find the whole thing fascinating, right now they are purifying my DNA ready to make some copies, then it goes on the chip. I paid $100 for the ancestry, it would have been $200 for the health one too but I believe they do a lot of data modeling, one cannot be certain with that considering lifestyle and diet choices one may make down the line.Thanks a lot, I appreciate that you found it useful, spitting into a test tube was fun. :)
Should be 8 weeks until they build the web site for me with all the data. I saw there's an option to download the raw DNA data, I am going to check for open source tools where I can analyze it further and plug in APIs for cloud services, etc...
My main objection is science throws out 95% and dismisses it as not important, I don't think that is wise. Even if I got another 50 years left I am sure the white coats will figure out what it does that junk so called DNA.
