Norine Lomonte: If a person is new to Yahoo Questions and Answers and a good part of our questioners are, they mostly likely ask their question from the Home Page. The Yahoo system is set up to pick up certain key words and throw the question into a category. Now, the questioner can change it before he/she submits, but if they are new they might not notice that. We get a lot of questions on this board because of that. I have seen two questions regarding a grandfather clock on this board.No doubt, the word grandfather caused it to come to genealogy. I usually probe a person's avatar and look at their profile and the q & a's they have and most of the time they are newbies are almost newbies....Show more
Alberto Kozub: I agree with Shirley, although I am also a newbie to this and I manage to read and follow directions. MOST of the time, people make mistakes when they don't bother to read and follow the directions. I find that most annoying.
Erin Arron: goo! d question. i'd agree agresivness is a dominant trait , and tempament is inherited from the dad and mom . In saying that's a dominant trait, it additionally ability that this often is the trait inherited from the discern , somewhat than say the submissive trait from the different discern . As some one else pronounced , in specific situations (and in basic terms in specific situations) genetic traits would properly be conquer with goood traing etc , different circumstances that's no longer the case...Show more
Elvin Weichbrodt: Lydia, actually I know a great deal about genetics but this is a genealogy section. While you are correct in stating that genetic makeup is important only your immediate family not strangers on a board can shed light on the specifics. Genealogy is about finding people in place and time thus it has more of a historical link than a scientific one. Knowing there's a cancer link in your family won't help you find your ancestors in 1695.
Cher! lyn Tefera: What a good question, I honestly don't know if t! here's a science forum but I am going to have a look in a moment, I totally agree with you about not being able to answer them, as far as I am concerned they are nothing to do with genealogy, or is it because I just don't know the answers. I think it's a bit of both.
Asa Soho: I haven't looked a this board enough to know the specific questions you are talking about, but one reason I don't come here often is that there is a lot more to genealogy than just asking if anybody is looking for the Smith family. Genetics has a lot to do with genealogy as does DNA, now. Both can help track ancestors. And both can be important to know since certain illnesses or traits are genetically based and handed down generation to generation. Even if you can't answer the questions, you might learn something by reading them and the answers....Show more
