Rambling on about genealogy & DNA

I was still able to find my site on Cindy's list after at least seven years! It wasn't easy, but I eventually found me.... You wouldn't believe how hard I worked to get on her list, then - and also onto Google! You know, if you stop to think about it which at my age I do increasingly more, it may be Cindy's List and Google will be my eternal life! Perhaps even after I die which is pending, I'll still be found on Cindi's List and Google at Yahoo! At last! I have a vision of the only real Heaven! ...of course, I won't be able to answer the emails.... but perhaps then, I've said it all before somewhere anyway - and who cares anyway?.... I've noticed that if I Google my name I'll also find some argument or the other with others on the DNA List I participated in several years ago and which I think, is archived. Lots of theories and suppositions were argued during those early days of genealogical DNA - and as usual, I had a big mouth - so what else is new?! Before I go, I'd like to have the mitochondrial DNA of my granddaughter, Shannon, evaluated. I haven't had the chance to put it to her yet - and of course, I'd pay the couple of hundred for the test. The reason is that we all know that she is ½ Chippewa and, of course ½ Gleason. However, I suspect that her DNA (and that of her sister, Devin) would be European. I believe there would be no biological evidence that the girls are at all AmerIndians nor with any Asian ancestry! (Mitochondrial DNA determines maternal ancestry - not paternal). If interested, I'll tell you why. I'm still on Google, but very far down the list now. Google has changed (not because of that) and not for the better. It seems to have gotten more "commercial"... Has anyone noticed that? It still is the GREATEST source of things I want to know now! I suppose that Captialism destroys everything it touches sooner or later. I'm a semi-Capitalist, of sorts, since the other -ism's don't work well, but give me a better -ism and I'll certainly look into it. I rather hope for a form of SocioCapitalism which deals with such things as ‘level playing fields', avoidance of egregious wealth, leadership rather than the confrontational defiance of the six billion people on this planet who could have us for supper... and probably would still be hungry! Lets put it this way. Capitalism most certainly isn't the answer, but perhaps Capitalism can provide the answer through, maybe an evolution from facism and the demise of silly mysticisms, into what we might call Capitalistic-Humanism? I won't live to see it of course...
