MORE differences (was Re: Freedom of speech and Dr. Watson)

This is quite interesting. From Scientific American

http://www.sbs.utexas.edu/levin/bio311d/articles/skin_deep.pdf

It was referenced in the Nov 2007 issue, article "Cell Defense and the
Sunshine Vitamin."

Seems that this anthropological article (the one with the url for a pdf) is
quite a refutation of what Frank Sweet wrote on where white skin came from.

Also check into a new BP medicine that acts on renin, "Tekturna." It works
on all groups, but much less so in blacks. Not surprising since their
kidney function IS different. Here is article mentioning it.

James, the sunshine Vit is D - and that's the vitamin specifically linked to
all that bone density and Vit D bonding factor (Gc genes) stuff.

Regardless of the merits of "differences in intelligence between races,"
supported or not, Dr. James Watson was denied his basic right of freedom
of
speech with a rapidity and heavy handedness that may stifle free speech
among scientists in the future.
