Yes Marie it is just a small felt type brush and they suggest that you scrape each cheek for 60 sec.. I sure hope I did it right and there is a release form to sign and return. I am looking forward to the results. Ed Sellers In a message dated 10/19/03 11:08:15 PM Central Daylight Time, mari@netins.net writes: ED thank you. NOW by scraping , you mean a SOFT BRUSH on your inside cheek? I don't have a copy of the instructions at hand. AND is there a Release Form to sign and return , so we can share your test results by a number/not name, I believe? I know it will be some time = 4 to 6 weeks before results are sent to us and will be posted at = http://showcase.netins.net/web/sellers2/sellers_dna.htm Thanks. marie, iowa
