It is obvious as well as inevitable from my perspective that all the races will eventually intermix, most likely leaving the planetary population with a dominance of Eurasian features. Meanwhile, rare North European features, while they will continue to crop up on occasion like red hair and green eyes, may eventually be considered rare and exotic, perhaps even sought after at teh local cosmetic boutique.
An old computer programming colleague of mine, KC, was originally from Taiwan. KC had a PhD in mathematics. His command of the English language was somewhat lacking and likely limited his job prospects, ergo, he became a computer programming troglodyte like me. KC was smart. Once in my mid 30's when I was much more brash and foolish I had concocted a geometric theory that was a loose (extremely loose) derivative of one of Kepler's laws of planetary motion. I proudly diagramed my theory on a blackboard to show KC the extent of my theoretical prowess. He looked at my diagram for about fifteen seconds and then proceeded to draw a few lines and angles through the heart of it. He disproved my theory in less than a minute. While disappointed, I thanked him for his expertise. At least, with KC's help, I was no longer making a fool of myself. KC and his family also ran a local Chinese restaurant. Occasionally a few of us would drive to their establishment and partake of the lunch buffet. Once when we went to pay the bill KC was manning the automated cash register. We had a mix-up on the total number of food items our party had purchased and it took KC a spell to straighten it out. He looked at us sheepishly while punching away at the cash register keyboard and proclaimed in his thick Chinese accent, "Computers confuse me." I always liked KC. Genetic "gifts" or not, in the end I suspect we are all just as smart and as dumb as the rest of our brothers and sisters. Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com
