Sorry for the delay but I was interupted in mid post, here is the complete post.

MykelMan17X, You may perhaps "see where I'm coming from..." but you still have no idea what DNAG does.

As for SNP's....you have to sequence the DNA before you find the SNP.

And since DNAG is incapable of sequencing DNA, it stands to reason therefore, that they have never found a SNP.

single nucleotide polymorphism put simply is sequence of previosuly inconspicuous DNA that people have in common.

Put simply it is nothing of the kind. You do know what a nucleotide is don't you? Do you understand the concept of 'single'? Now put them together and understand that the phrase is self descriptive.

(I would have to look it up but if I'm not mistaken an SNP has to be at least a sequence of 3 codons of DNA)...

Look it up, you're mistaken. A SNP is a significant subset of a single codon.

that's where DNAG's approach comes in. Instead of relying on SNP's provided to them they perform a "pan-genome" scan

No they don't.

-DNAG on the other hand is taking the "pan-genome AND SNP" approach

Repeating it over and over won't make it so.

Wow, I'm really enjoying this discussion, how about you?
I'm learning so much.
