Gracias senor Romero for your informative letter which to me vindicated to a great extent the point I was trying to make in my own letter published in the Alibi a few weeks ago...that the Hispanos of NM are indeed of Spanish stock and therefore European (as well as a mix, to a lesser degree, of other groups such as Native American, Jewish and Arabic)...your DNA information and the project is something I was already aware of and might someday participate in...and the results you gave of the samples are information that I think most Hispanos already figure to be true ( my dad and other relatives have often said we have Jewish/Arabic and Native American but mostly Spanish blood) (talk about an interesting and some might say volatile mix, heh?) but seriously, I appreciate that your letter was written with maturity and intelligence on this important subject...the Hispano culture/society is unique and distinct to itself and should be recognized, acknowledged and respected as such...unfortunately some people want to force us to be Mexicans or call ourselves Mexicans for their own agendas, weel, I don't think they will succeed very much...hasta la vista bro!
