Blaine: Nice try! (:>) But, it is rarer than you would think. Consider that when the Mormon migration to Utah was slowing down in the late 1800's, there must have been around 40,000+ people who had "gathered" to Utah. That would have to be a huge gene pool. In practice, I seldom meet anyone who is actually a descendant of Brigham Young.
