I received an e-mail "present" from my cousins in Utah -- they've ordered a 44 marker DNA Test for me. This will be interesting as I am not aware of any other HARD*STERs doing the testing, though I believe there are a number of HARD*STYs who have already been tested. The company is GENEBASE dot Com in Canada. I am especially curious about how my test results will correlate with HARD*STY results. The test was ordered this past week and has a 2 to 3 week delivery time. I figure results should be back around June/July. As soon as I receive the results, and can decipher them, I'll post the results. I would appreciate hearing from any other HARD*STER / HARD*STY researchers who have done the testing. Mike in NC

Mike, Thanks for letting us know. We will be more than happy to hear the results and if you confirm a Hard*ster and Har*sty connection, we will post the information on the Randolph Co. web page for the benefit of others. Nola
