genetics testing
I was just wondering how genetics testing works over the internet? Does it cost anything or do you get paid for it/
COST OF HARVARD TEST?
HOW MUCH? WHEN? WHERE?
Attention Harvard Legal Affairs Dept.
What ?Another Harvard professor wants to conduct experiments on our children ? Does "Dr. Timothy Leary ring a bell? How would Harvard like to be on the wrong end of a Class Action that would make the victories against Big Tobacco look like a Sunday picnic ?

Knome in GQ
There is a really interesting article about private whole genome sequencing done by Knome (mentioned above) in GQ magazine at: http://men.style.com/gq/features/landing?id=content_7481
Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act
No one in the U.S. needs to be worried about their genetic information being used to deny insurance coverage or employment. The Genetic Nondiscrimination Act is now law. For more information, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_Information_Nondiscrimination_Act
Nonetheless it is courageous to bare your genes to the world. I have no doubt this will benefit research in the long run.

You do not want to do this!
Why, you ask?
The statement that "Everything you do and say will be used against you." is fact. Not everyone already has a career as a scientist or a degree from Harvard to fall back on. For the people who do not the personnel department is looking for anything and everything they can use to decide who stays and who goes. Your genetic makeup says you have a high probability of being angry when the job calls for cool and you are out of there when the more coolest presents his or her DNA.
Think of it this way. Even the Wikipedia, although headquartered in the US, has far more British, Australian and Canadian administrators than American.If you get into an arguement and your last name is German who the heck do you think will win?
