Not that I've read Jared Diamond yet, so I couldn't polemicize against these, "Upstream, " folks. Oops, it was the arlist, American Renaissance, another set of highbrow racists.They are highbrow racists into eugenics and Rushton. My sister when she visited was reading it the Jared Diamond book.. I'll borrow her copy when I see her next.

> From an article in the Chicago Tribune. Astonishingly Jared Diamond now
sees that environmental differences can result in genetics differences,
and quickly too. Could it be that he will now admit the possibility that
racial behavioral have some genetic basis, which have been caused by
natural selection?

Diamond's research also offers a novel theory about why only 2 percent
of native Europeans are diabetic, compared with 13 percent of
African-Americans, 17 percent of U.S. Latinos and up to 50 percent of
Native Americans.
He speculates that a diabetes epidemic occurred in Europe from about
1600 to 1800 as food became more plentiful.
"European states got more efficient about transporting food to places
where there were famines," he said. "New World crops like corn, potatoes
and tomatoes came into Europe during that period, so there was a greater
variety of crops and less risk of crop failure."
Because no treatment existed for diabetes, it could have wiped out many
of the people who carried predisposing genes, he said.
