I know I'm Irish and Indian, but these tests are getting more economical and I AM curious. Anybody ever done one? If so, which one?

I did one. I'm Celtic through and through. About 50% western France, 20something% Briton, 20something% Irish and parts and pieces Scandanavian. The history of the Celtic migrations from the Roman times onward is pretty interesting. Edit: I found it. Here's what you'll get with ancestory.com...

My great great grandfather founded the town I’m from but I already knew that. But as far as ancestry that is blood I have no idea because I’m adopted. Most of the folks on my mom and dad’s side fought in the civil war for GA, AL, and SC. I know someone on my dad’s side that was from SC murdered some guy in an argument and moved to AL to get away from the law and that’s how his side ended up here. Other than that I don’t know too much. Like I said, I’m adopted so it won’t help me much.
I hope we have once again reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There�s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts. � Ronald Reagan

My mom did one or rather is still working on it. Turns out my great great great grandfather actually lead a big part of the Trail of Tears.

How much of this info is going to a database somewhere to be monitored? I'm usually not a conspiracy theorist but this DNA screening thing bothers me a lot. This worries me also and is the only reason I haven't done it yet.

I have zero interest in knowing what my "makeup" is. In the big picture, in the small picture...it makes no difference. Good money making scheme for the people who run the tests, though.

My birth mom tried to contact me on facebook but to be honest, my parents are the ones who raised me and I want nothing to do with the biological folks. I looked on her profile after she contacted me and found out all I needed to know and didn’t respond to her. Nothing good would come out of it.

I did it through Ancestry.com. Being a somewhat dark skinned guy I figured I had some Black, Indian, Cajun, Hispanic or something in me, but no, I am 100% white boy. Mostly Eastern Europe (Germany/Western Russia), some British, a small bit Scandinavian. Do it, you may be surprised. I was.
Bottom line is that I am the root of the world's problems.
After doing this, I've actually had a few very distant cousins contact me through Ancestry.com. Just neat to know, but no great relationships or anything came from it.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Just be prepared to do some research if you have European ancestry because they'll tell you eastern or western European and not be country specific

I wonder how accurate the information in their database actually is or are they just making information up on-the-fly to keep you interested?
