If you're one of those creative types who's decided to give genetic genealogy tests for the holidays, you might want to consider steering the recipients to DNA Stories (in the DNA category) to help them understand what you've given them. We can tell from our traffic that the two stories there now are getting lots of attention -- and we've received several remarks that DNA project leaders are referring their members to the stories to learn how the tests work. They tend to go down easy since the shows are based on the actual experiences of individuals, and many find that less intimidating than a science lecture! So far, we've got an episode focusing on Y-DNA and another on mtDNA, but keep an eye out. There will be more coming!
