Thumbs up A question for Dr_Nuisance

Your question about the famaly tree, if one looks at it the other way, where there could not have been so many people, because you are making an assumption where there was not inter-breeding. But there was, and a hell of a lot of it through out history. If your theory was correct, the human race would not be growing, it would be dimminishing, that is not so.

Another question comes to mind, what if your parents had 3 kids and not just 1? That is not included into your calculation.
